In truth I don't know for sure. =)

It's just my best explanation for the huge variation I've seen in my embarks. Sometimes the teachers will be efficiently organizing demonstrations and have everyone trained up in no time, other times they'll just never get around it. Lazy bums.

the ones organizing demonstrations also get skill at organizing. That may have more influence on when it starts and finishes than the myth that they're waiting for someone who's having a drink. If you're doing science anyway, I'd really like to know if organizer has any influence on demonstrations.

Well, to add a little to this, I have 4 embark dwarves that all started with the same amount of training, and have all been training together the same amount of time, and the one dwarf with "poor focus and little patience," has only gained a little over a level in most areas, while the other dwarves have all gained at least 2, and closer to 3 levels in most cases.

That's pretty cool!  I love how traits can affect things like that.

Definitely interesting to me.
