Brilliant, Peggy! 
 
Thank you for taking the time to respond so generously and graciously to Steve Banks.  I completely agree with you. 
 
For some time, I have offered the perspective that OS is “2nd-tier“---the principles of OS transcending and including all the potential 1st-tier interactions---to others in the Integral/SDi community who share this misconception that OS is a “green” method.   I have also introduced several “Integral/SDi” folks to Open Space as a practical method congruent with 2nd-tier thinking that allows people to more readily embody/enact 2nd-tier, even convening a few Open Space events on their behalf, and I’m happy to say that some folks seem to “get it,” even though there are still others who maintain that OS is “green.” 
 
One theory I have about this misconception in the realm of integral is that most of the folks within the Integral/SDi communities who maintain that OS is “green” have either not experience Open Space or they have experienced Open Space where the center of gravity of the group in the room is green and the “integral” folks in the room are confusing the state/stage of the people in the room with the method… i.e. the fact that folks may be primarily embodying green during an Open Space event does not mean that the Open Space method is green, just like “Spiral Wizards” tailoring their interactions for the predominately green consciousness of an audience, does not mean that they, the Spiral Wizards, are operating from green consciousness…   
 
In any case, suffice it to say that I really appreciate reading your wonderfully articulated and educated written response.
 
Warm regards,
Karen

Subject: [OSLIST] An OS "critique" and response
 
My friend, Tom Atlee, sent me the attached doc, From Open Space...egral Space.doc, by Steve Banks.  It struck me as so misinformed and error filled that I responded with Integral Open Space.doc.  
 
Thought you might find both the impressions of a neophyte and my response of interest.
 
from sunny Seattle,
Peggy
