...methodologies.” On the surface, this seems to make sense. With so much information readily accessible, why waste mental space on facts like the population of Russia or the circumference of a circle? Humans have limited mental capacity.

Instead, all the summit delegates - regional Tibetan community representatives, members of parliament, youth leaders, independence activists and other NGOs - were divided into about 15 groups by choosing numbers at random on the first day of the talks. They have split up in the various government buildings scattered around Macleodganj, where the Dalai Lama makes his home, and will gather on Friday at the Tibetan Children's Village School, where each subgroup will present a report to the summit as a whole.
