Reading and sustaining

Hi all,

I've never understood the distinction between "summer reading" and  
reading done during other seasons.  Perhaps, because I don't like  
spending time on the beach, I have never really had a specifically  
summer-ish reading experience.  Nevertheless I shall await suggestions  
on this topic with interest.  Good novels are great treasures. And I  
throw in this recommendation: Prodigal Summer by the American writer  
Barbara Kingsolver.  I'd be happy to give away my copy to anyone who  
requests it.

On the topic of how we foster sustainable OS outcomes, my first  
reaction is, we can't.  Perhaps I misunderstand, but I believe it is  
not up to me (as a facilitator) to foster anything.  I open space,  
hold space, and close space.  That's all I can do.  Unless I'm  
consulting to a system over a longer period than actual OS event, I  
have no other responsibility.  And even then, I'm not sure my job is  
any different.
