Omni's All-Stars

Smart, knowledgeable, articulate, etc.--qualities that apply to many, many more EvCers apply to my choices.

Dr. Adequate: Ultra-sharp analysis on almost anything expressible in words or math; disciplined and funny.

bluegenes: Deep, bold thinker; genial and deadly.

jar: Rare breadth of knowledge, hell on logical flaws; grumpy and deadly.

I could put together a dozen teams, though, without breaking a sweat and with full confidence. For example, I'd parallel that team with:

Percy: Polymath. In complete control.

Straggler: Implacable. Relentless. Drinks.

ringo: Letter for letter, the best.

In fact, I'd prefer those threesomes fight it out. I'll moderate and drink.

Re: Omni's All-Stars

Indubabitly, occifer, but I olny had one.

Fair caution: As a debate partner, I might shred the opposition's arguments--or fly across the stage to chew their throats.

I'd depend on my team to tell me what is appropriate.
