For all the musicians out there...

Most of you have probably seen this, but it's still quite amusing.

Matt, I was thinking maybe you could put together a version of this for The Rock tonight.

A revised word problem

A revised word problem for the math types

After getting some more information, I have a revision to the problem posted a few days ago that should make it easier.

There are 8 moderators, one at each table, that stay with a given table and do not move.

So, the problem is reduced to 56 people (P0, P1, ... P55) meeting at 8 tables of 7 seats each, for 8 sessions, with all 56 people needing to meet each other (and all the moderators), but the moderators not needing to meet each other.

Word problems

A word problem for all you math people out there.

64 people (P0, P1, P2, ... P63) are going to be attending a Speed Networking event. There are 8 tables of 8 people each.

Find a way to arrange 8 sessions such that everyone has a chance to network with everyone else, with a minimum of duplication at each point (so you're not sitting with the same people more often than needed).
