working with the geeks

Since monday, I am engaged in another consulting gig for a high profile client. I am getting to work with some super dudes, very senior architects. They are luminaries in their own fields ... its quite something,

the amount of stuff you get to learn just by watching them is just phenomenal
- they can immediately recognize the problem areas
- the thought process. Phew, they are just able to co-relate things which may seem absolutely irrelevant and out of context of each other.
- ability to solutionize.
- how they engage with the client.
- obviously the depth of knowlege they pocess.

at the same time, you are sort of scared of not been able to live upto their expectations. which is sort of good in a way I guess, keeps you in your toes. :)
