Experience with geeks :-) in OST forums

[Christine Whitney Sanchez]

Alan, having recently had the pleasure of your company on a wonderous hike
in the Superstition Wildnerness which gave me the opportunity to admire your
mind and feel your heart, I know how important conversation is to you.  I'm
smiling with you and all my 'geek' J friends (some of whom truly thrive on
chaos and complexity) who have, as yet, not had the glorious experience of
OST.

Holiday Blessings to you and all your relations,

  Hi All

  My thanks to all those who responded, on and off line, so constructively
to my request for experiences

  with technical people in OST settings. You have greatly expanded my
perceptions of the issues and possibilities.



  And likely too those of the person with whom I am conversing about these
matters and to whom

  I am passing on salient insights from your contributions.



  Maybe also others on this list benefitted also, as some lovely gems were
revealed IMO.



  I will take up kind offers to come back later with specific questions and
for stories.



  I feel appropriately and duly admonished for neglecting to ‘smile’ when
using the term ‘geek’ J in the context of this

  correspondence. There were valid reasons for my choosing the name, not
least for a bit of fun and to attract

  attention!



  Also the person with whom I am dealing has elected to call her exercise
"Geek Week." Further the

  CEO of Novell says that the name is a badge of honor, although he doesn't
often use it. (See "How to Manage

  your Geeks" in Fast Company)

  Whatever, I do not use it in a judgemental way. After all, I am an OST
practitioner.



  Good to converse, with love



  Alan
