HI CHRIS
I HAVE COMBINED A DIALOGUE SESSION / CAFE SEMINAR FORMAT WITH OPEN SPACE IN
A 2 DAY MEETING WITH 100 PEOPLE - SOME TIME BACK.
MY THINKING WAS THAT THE IDEAS FOR ACTION AND FINDING GOOD NEW SOLUTIONS
WOULD COME FROM A MORE MEANINGFUL PLACE IN THE GROUP IF DIALOGUE HAD OPENED

Interesting responses...
I have in fact only just stumbled upon Bohm's work and came to it quite
circuitously. Lately I've been reading a lot of books about physics --
The Dancing Wu Li Masters, Paul Davies's works, Fritjof Capra's stuff.
