Is it normal to dream of OSM during the night?

Do you think I should breathe a little and leave OSM for a while?

Do you really dream of the OSM data? Nice question :-)

I should admit that I dream of my surveys (done and to do), of the data coverage in the area I know, of new applications that can be done with OSM, and naturally of a quasi-complete database :-)

I guess this is a good chance to gain some points at the self test: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_purity_self-test

Depends on whether imports were involved or not ;)

The Willamette Valley TIGER cleanup in Oregon was quite the mess.

Well the question is: was it a nightmare or not?

It depends. If it was with Potlatch2 or iD, then you should see a doctor. If it was with JOSM, then it's bearable.

With Potlatch2, not a nightmare ;-)

Heh, I guess if you hate tool modality and being able to work in layers.

This is what got me starting to try to get paid to do this sort of thing.

Getting paid for dreaming? Sounds good, where can I apply?
