There have been a lot of academic and government sponsored sociological studies in group dynamics in the last several decades. Being the academically-minded group that we are, we would like to contribute the knowledge we've gained from our own intensive research. In our experience we've found that focus and productivity can be successfully maintained within a group of up to seven members. Beyond seven, groups tend to break down in a variety of ways, including but not limited to, multiple conversations, small book circles, occasional petty bickering, and wild and cackling laughter. That's why we've always gone with eight. Of course, we hadn't had eight people since July 2004. We had nine members for about 18 seconds, but that was so energetically unstable that we immediately lost two members and a pair of pions. Then we had S particles leaving, and B particles coming in, and then we sloughed off an old T... Sigh. The interactions are so muddled that I can't document them without resorting to a fourth dimension, so I'll just leave it to your imagination. But, we have eight again! The L-shell (that's L for Lager Rhythms) is complete! I think that makes us a nobel gas or something. Oddly, now we don't feel so much like doing anything... (Hush. Allow us to mix our physics metaphors in peace...)
Current Members Lookie! New picture! Click on their names to find out more about the people in our current roster. (Special thanks to Greg Morrow, official staff biographer.) Sopranos - Sarah
Nelson Crawford, Leisa McCord The correlation of the above people with the above picture goes as follows: (Center of the known photographic universe) Lijo Joseph, (Upside down on Lijo's lap) Angelo Benedetto. (Emerging whole under her husband from the bed that we're sitting on) Elizabeth Benedetto. (Lounging in the front right) John Garvin. (Cuddled up behind John) Laurie Feinswog. (The head to the left of Lijo) Leisa McCord. (The head to the right of Lijo) Sarah Nelson Crawford. (Rubbing Lijo's head for luck) Reed Macomber. Past Members No one sticks around forever; it just sometimes seems that way. Since 1994, there have been a lot of Lager Rhythms. Some stable, some not. Some with web pages, some not. Karen
