Their decision

You always wonder what makes people turn out, for instance, for my dance on Saturday.

Choices are weighed against other possibilities. Adam Gopnik's just wrote about choosing in the New Yorker, remembering his advisor in college as he tried to decide whether to study art history or psychology. "Is it a hard choice?" the advisor asked. "If it's a hard decision, then there's always lots to be said on both sides so either choice is likely to be good in its way."
Hopefully they don't just decide to sit on the couch.
