I really love this story, Gil.

I don't like "giving conferences", nor volunteeres that give help that no one needs - and, in some cases, contribute to accelerate the desagregation of the communities they "want to help". This is also true of many "help" given my the develloped countries to third world ones. I like even less if they use OST to do that...

But this is an example where OST allowed for (potentiated?) the emergence of something that make a lot of sense to me: ask the ones that you want to "help". And then amazing things can happen...

So, dear Lisa, your customers must be REALLY "prepared to be surprised". Or they can begin directly with stage two ;-)
