Dear Bernd, I feel that one of the consequences for the way we communicate on this list and elsewhere, and I experience it in this list a lot already, is to show myself. Seems that the more I am able to do that (and I need a hell of a lot more practice at this) the more I feel others do it and vic

To me, one of the interesting things of Open Space seems to be that it brings the sense of togetherness in a world

Dear Michael,   I think you are right. And I read, what your write, in its immediate application also as a personal message to me. So I'll try. Not so easy though   I think I showed myself on the list for a while, but then I disappeared for a long time. The reason is, that in 2002/3 I got some
