Kerry--

Re: your thought that maybe just Israeli and Palestinian women should come
together, I've spent this week with a group of women from Siberia who were
visiting the Washington State Legislature and other groups in my area.  One
woman observed that in the legislative committees which included both women
and men, the women seemed to ask most of the questions.  She wondered if the
men thought they already knew the answers. . .

As Chris pointed out, when we come in with our own assumptions we don't
receive much information about what really happens.  And maybe we do fall
into familiar patterns, based on old roles.  The hunter confronted by a
saber-toothed tiger needed to throw his spear first and ask questions later.
But maybe it is time to change our old patterns.
