The publishing industries are proof that “large” doesn’t have to be all that objectively “large.”
I was going to say, or small groups, either, but you picked the poster child. Well done.
More to the point: 100 is plenty (the US Senate and its internal “rules”). Well, technically, 60… thanks to those very same rules.
Since there are more than 60 commercial publishing executives, I think we’ll have to give DC the nod.
Regarding the publishing industries, lots of things seem large when you are small.
Corollary: “Never underestimate the stupidity of smart people in large groups.”
All too frequently, it is the “large groups” that is the problem – not the intelligence of the individuals.
And never forget the really smart people are the ones calling everyone else stupid.
