ok, here's a story...true story.

My first trip to Atlanta was very exciting. Overwhelming with all the energy, excitement, the fields, the teams, the pits (omg), everything. Wonderful. We were a lot smaller team than we are now and with the pit crew and drive team busy, the team in the stands was very small. And quiet. When the team wasn't competing, the students pulled out books and read. When the team was up, they put down their books and watched. The drive team would signal them to cheer and make noise and it just didn't happen. When the match was over they went back to their books. But - they never missed a match. Not one. They were there, they just didn't want to cheer. Things have changed over the past few years and the team has gotten into cheering and dancing and conga lines but in their own way, I think the quiet ones who read books had just as much fun and were just as involved in the team.

This post doesn't really address anything other than we can't really judge a book by its cover.
