OST with less than 25 words

[Jack Ricchiuto]

First, I like the short statement on OST.

I¹ve started to do brief descriptions framed around questions rather than
statements. This is especially elegant in describing OS where the media of
inquiry becomes the message of authentic engagement in community. For OS, it
would be something like: Do you like to be in conversations in this
community where you feel alive, inspired, connected, surprised, engaged, and
empowered? Well, that¹s what happens in open space.
