"Learn from the best; the second-raters have nothing to offer." - 365 Project, Day 318

Would you rather learn from a great showman reading from a script, or a knowledgeable person who may be a bit on the dry side?

The showman will make learning interesting, but is completely inflexible in feedback and answering questions, whereas the smarty-pants will be able to answer any question you have right away, but only certain people will be able to watch and learn from this person for any extended period of time.

I suppose in person the smarty-pants is slightly better, especially if interaction is possible and encouraged, while in a more passive setting, like television or (kind of) web 2.0 stuff, the showman is better, because this showman will be fun and become popular, while any questions can be answered at a later date.  What do you think?

Here's what I think: these are today's pictures.

My note: It was one of those days.  The dreariness actually seeps into my bedroom.  I did go outside for a little while, which basically gave me the authority to tell you it was extremely dreary outside.

The next few days will be somewhat busy.  'Nuff said.
