The mentality of rowers never ceases to amaze - here we were, several dozen seemingly healthy people, cramped into an over-heated room, watching with utter concentration the same solitary stroke over and over in slow motion. Rowers are a strange breed. The very best rowers have the fierce competitiveness of a Green Beret soldier, the artistic temperment of an old world master, the control and patience of a Zen monk. They are not driven by dreams of glory and money. They are selfless and sturdy. They will cooperate with people whose company they don't much enjoy in order to achieve their goals. Strange, wonderful people.
