5 Hour OS

[Michael M Pannwitz]

Now, whow, how do you like this for German precision!
Congratulations, Jo.
I like the part with the gallery you organized.
But come to think of it, I would really have expected you to produce
that report between 5pm and 5:05pm!!
I had the opportunity to facilitate os-events of 3hrs, 3,5hrs,4hrs,
4.5hrs.....they all work just fine when the basic conditions are met.
The most basic of all those conditions being that the facilitator
stands aside and is completely unattached to outcome.
Although I know this, even after 80+ os-processes, I am still full of
anticipation and anxiety deep within me...for some strange reason it
is not easily noticed and does not seem to interfere.
greetings from Berlin
