Michael, Thank you for feeding the idea of a NYC stammtisch and providing what it takes.. The idea appears to be taking on a life of it's own and snowballing. I will think about what you have shared. Scott -- On Mon, May 12, 2008 at 5:50 PM, Michael M Pannwitz wrote: > Dear Scott, > I love the o

Raffi, When I show Paul, my "Dogma" colleague, your post I know he's going to laugh his socks off, not least because his business is called CATS3000 (which you've probably noticed). I've added it to the other contributions at www.jackmartinleith.com/?page_id=192. Thanks a million. Jack Jack Ma

Jack and Others in this conversation. Here are some of my thoughts. In the work and training I do, I make a substantial differentiation between Open Space Technology and Open Space. I think OST is a particular technology for navigating in Open Space - which was discovered by Harrison and has it

I've just been offered Margret Craven's novel "I heard the owl call my name". What a beautiful story. The natives very much seem to be there where "all of life is open space." Taking things as they are. Not interpreting. Understanding about the importance to wait until things are ready themselves,

Dear Jack and all, Putting the Discordian funny bone aside, it's great to have a conversation about an updated version of OS, dogmatism, and the like. An Open Space Establishment is probably not an oxymoron for one good reason: in any community - even in an ostensibly highly inclusive one- there
