What Daniel Comp's 2018 Video Teaches Asxer Owners About Staying the Course
About Staying the Course
On 2018-09-07, Daniel Comp published "360MEN MUGSHOTS and COFFEE - Merlin Berg - Antarctica" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 1, The Long Witness, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.
What the video shows
Back in Glendale, Merlin Berg tells of his Antarctic expeditions, and Daniel offers the saying that luck is "when preparation meets opportunity." Late-life adventure becomes a source of meaning. It belongs to the long witness as proof that purpose doesn't retire.
This time we're gonna learn about his adventures in Antarctica.
From the YouTube description: In this episode of MUGSHOTS & COFFEE Daniel gets a long tail (and a true story) from Merlin Berg on his Antarctica expeditions - both of them. (full description on YouTube)
The asxer angle
An asxer works the same way. It holds an owner's record in one place and answers from it, so a visitor can see what the owner taught then and what the owner teaches now. That continuity is what lets a stranger trust an owner they have never met.
