and so is of interest to every one.  The winner of the all-kingdom 
sheep-shearing, to use my theoretical example, is not of interest to 
every one.  The organizer of the sheep shearing competition is the one 
who should publicize the competition, write notes, organize 
prize-giving, and report the results.  S/he should not get up in court 
and give a fifteen minute blow by blow account of the competition, 
including each sheep's personal hay preference, unless, of course, their 
majesties specifically request her to do so.<
