<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been intrigued by the way Anne Stadler has
been speaking about the law of 2 feet lately: one foot of passion and
one of responsibility.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>P.S. Most of you probably don't know Anne,
since she doesn't like listservs. I sometimes describe her as the
godmother of Open Space as she has quietly contributed a great deal to
theory and practice of OS over the years. </FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2>I am saddened that we don't have the benefit of her voice on this
list. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Dear OSLIST,<BR><BR>Thanks, Chris C and others, for your work
on the FAQs.<BR><BR>Just to stir the ever-stirring pot:<BR><BR><I>Whatever
happens is the only thing that did.<BR><BR></I>hmm.<BR><I><BR></I>Also, a
comment on how I describe the law. I used to always say, as it's stated
in the FAQs, "If you're in a place where you are neither learning nor
contributing, go to somewhere where you can." This certainly speaks to
people who are accustomed to being trapped in meetings. But two weeks
ago at an event, someone came up to me and asked, "Can I use my feet even if
I'm learning?" Since then, I am aligning more with something Jeff posted
somewhere a month or two ago:<BR><BR><I>It's the spirit that moves the
feet.<BR><BR></I>Or something like that.<BR><I><BR></I>Chris<BR><BR>-- <BR>S
