Jeff -- I always think of Brainstorming as "Thinking of good ideas for
somebody else to do." Little passion and no responsibility = 0 productive
movement.

reminds me that the difference between a brainstorm and an open space agenda
creation is that the latter is based on passion and responsibility.

some items on the brainstorm list may not make it to the open space agenda
wall if the person doesn't actually feel very passionate or responsible
about it after all.

or it may make it to the wall, but then nobody comes to the session, and the
convenor writes a short report to handle it and moves to another topic.
