Stay calm. The camel will eventually stop

I came across a great pair of sites that show the pros and cons of lower barriers of entry to publish content broadly... eHow and its sister site wikiHow. eHow contains vetted information, while anyone can publish at any time to wikiHow.

For awhile, my favorite wikiHow moment related to "How to have a fireworks show"... the tip - "wait until it is dark".

Then I read this jewel:

How to regain control of a spooked camel


which includes the pearl of wisdom: "Stay calm. The camel will eventually stop".

Score one for the vetters :)
