Lisa and everyone else--

As a royal subject, I am very proud to have Lisa as an Access Queen!
Especially since she and I are from the same town!

I know that what Lisa is talking about works. I got to Goa for my
first OSonOS two years back in part by accessqueening my way there:
I arranged to lead a workshop upon return. The client paid me up front
for the workshop. This allowed me to participate in both the Goa
OSonOS and the Genuine Contact Program (which changed my life!). And
OSI-USA did help too. Thank you!

And now look at what trouble I'm in: I'm co-convening an OSonOS!

Lisa, is it synchronicity or what? Today we sent off a grant to make
participation in the OSonOS for a limited number of regional Russian participants
possible. (Side note to Dutch OS'ers-- if the grant goes through, know
that these are your Dutch tax euros at work!)

This brings me to a related thought. If the grant gets funded, I hope
to start a wiki page at osw.org devoted to grants. This would be a
place where we could share texts of funded (or unfunded) grant
applications with an OST component. Why reinvent the wheel when we can
use language that has worked before and adapt it to our
circumstances...

In Moscow the ducks are quacking, the woodpeckers are pecking, the
cars are going vroom. And the temple bells are going ding! August 4-6:
where are you going to be? : ))

Hats off to the quickening of being!
raffi

p.s. A reminder: Whoever plays is the right people!
p.p.s. Someone really close to me said to me the other day: "The only
thing worse than a training is Open Space." I wonder what she meant!
