"I’m not sure why I hadn’t considered beforehand the possible downside of having all those exaulted good guys in the same space, fighting for relevance, cash and prizes," she says.

There is nothing more tedious than one person in a group who thinks they’re right about everything. And in a tribe full of them? Yikes!"
