Try merging - there are a lot of posts, well, some, that are duplicated 
within this group of categories. Some of the categories have few posts 
anyway.

Second thoughts - keep the schools section - it's substantial enough to 
stand on it's own; but culture, food, slang, geography (only about 3 
real posts in there, the rest are OT) overlap quite a bit and could be 
lumped together.
Besides having to flip through a few posts looking for what you want is 
good for the soul - and you might learn something new.

Worse.
He's been getting at the client behind our backs, telling him that we 
and especially me, are doing it wrong. I suspect he has an unofficial 
connection to some possible equipment suppliers/manufacturers and is on 
a promise of a commission of some sort.
Retribution will be swift and terrible.
And forcing me to travel..... unforgivable.
For that alone - the curry  colonic, I think.
