<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Harrison did a talk this morning at an Executive
Leadership Program alumnus breakfast at Seattle University. This is a very
traditional (actually a Jesuit) school and most of the attendees were new to
OS. One person asked a question that really intrigued me, so I thought I'd
bring it here.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What would be the implications of convening an OS
for purposes generally considered to be for the ill of the community? For
example, what if a street gang convened an OS on on doing a better job of taking
over a neighborhood?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Would it still lead to the best of the human spirit
emerging, as I always experience in OS? </FONT></DIV>
