Introduction: If you're happy and you know it, fold your arms

"Fold your arms," instructs moderator Jeff Grout after a stirring piece of VT on the first 30 years of Advantage (set to the go-to track for stirring VT, Sigur Ros's Hoppipolla).

"Notice that some of you are right over left, some left over right."

He's right.

"Try it the other way round," he suggests.

And suddenly we're all thinking about change. It's hard.

He follows up with a quote from Keynes, to the effect that it's not developing new ideas which is hard; it's jettisoning old habits.

Jeff also challenges us to think about which part of ourselves we dry first after leaving the bath or shower.

I'll let you know how that goes tomorrow morning.
