[OSList] Law of Mobility, reimiagined

Looking at the two clicks that Gerardo mentions it takes to leave an 
online group, I think thats also the two things implied by the Law: if 
you neither learn nor contribute, look for a more productive place.

Now, as far as I can see, this also applies to analog groups of two that 
some of us are confined to. If you neither learn nor contribute, make 
sure to leave that group. It does not imply looking for another group, I 
could turn into a butterfly, for instance,and be all by myself for a 
while or forever.

The version that Chris has in his blog
“if you find yourself in a place where you are not learning or 
contributing, find somewhere where you can.”
is new to me.
If you neither learn nor contribute (2 things), look for a more 
productive place, not a place "where you can". The more productive place 
might be on a dancefloor, in the swimming pool, gardening all by 
yourself, fishing is also great, reading in a book, walk in the forest 
or even join another group or something else, there is no prescription.

Thanks to the virus I have all the time in the world for these 
musings... and love to read blogs which I never did before even 
considering getting another book...
