Help me out. This threw me for a loop and Google wasn't helpful.
- zellyn 5y agoWeird. For me, every Google result for [entmoot] is appropriate and basically gives the answer to your question I would have given. It's a Lord of the Rings reference.
- fuzzybear3965 5y agoRight - I understood that it was the walking tree from Lord of the Rings. But, what does it mean for Consul to hold a walking tree? Is it something like: "Consul bears a heavy weight (has a lot of responsibility and so responds slowly)"?
- zellyn 5y agoA walking tree is an Ent. A meeting of Ents, with ponderous deliberation — ponderous on _Ent_ timescales, that is — is an Entmoot.
- fuzzybear3965 5y agoOhhhh. Their clocks run slowly. A lot of time passes between events. Totally makes sense. Thanks!
