Except that rotten tomatoes are not green..they are deeper red in color than a fresh one. Plus, why throw tomatoes at all if you like a performance. For me it's a completely broken analogy.

The following is a link to the tool he is using in the video. I've adjusted things so that it is displaying CO right before the emission event. Advance the time by 3 hrs to see the difference. http://earth.nullschool.net&#x2

I took a stab at this exact scenario years ago (1999?) and came to roughly the same conclusion. I ultimately decided to treat it as a travelling salesman problem where the distances between nodes (people) were weighted based on how recently

Another strategy that I've often used is to just fix a few bugs that seem to be in the vicinity of the area you want to familiarize with. Heck, I even do this on my own codebases that I haven't touched in a while. I find it helps
