A committee is a random group of people assembled to hammer out a consensual agreement. No uniformity, no matching fabrics, no shared vision. Once everyone has thrown in their ten cents worth and a single common denominator has been revealed amongst this very diverse group of individuals without offending anyone and without unnecessarily bruising any member’s feelings, hours if not days have been wasted, while the worth of their eventual watered-down edict could easily be squeezed into the nest of a bantam hummingbird.
