    I think "flash mob participation and creation" should be worked into the general education requirements for the undergraduate and the graduate degree.

    Does that mean we have to do one?

    I always say it to no one that listens, but I know I certainly don't dance enough... Can we take a theoretical approach: looking at the group dynamics behind flashmob construction, the musical trends represented in flash mobs (really? all the marching band music? no wonder NYC-urban kids are so left out of flashmobs) and the possible emotional and cognitive effects of creating and participating in one?

    Yes, let's tie it into Wesch's anthropology of YouTube.
