SV: A minor point - perhaps.

Sat Nov 28 05:15:26 PST 2009

Sounds like a great topic went up and was worked through thoroughly – to me!

IT ALWAYS WORKS!

Hehe

PS You are playing in the top league now – remember Lisa Heft was the only
one once too! Anyone else with such an experience – and what did you do? DS

The only time I've had the group not respond is when I was the only one who
showed up for an open space. I spent three hours writing about how
unappreciated I was. During hour three my best friend showed up and we
called it off and went to lunch! No book of proceedings from that one,
though!

wow... now, i've had plenty of questions from sponsors about shouldn't they
be ready with some pre-determined issues to post, seeded in the group, just
in case the group doesn't respond.  so i can appreciate the lure of the
chocolates, just to give those who would post that little extra nudge... but
the wrappers is really over the top, jon.... i've never heard of anyone
hedging like this, having all these little wrappers scattered just in case
the group decides not to drink anything so there wouldn't be any cups for
the facilitator to pick up!

Usually something like a mixed tin of toffees, soft centres, small cubes of
chocolate etc in wrappers. I like the way the coloured wrappers begin to
clutter up the middle space too!
