<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Especiallly drums... we should think about this
when WE CHANGED the room with Birgitt. How do you think, Birgitt? Actually when
neally all left, the administrator came to me and said, if we know you are
working here, we would find the place for musical band.... but all were already
left and we we fine with Birgitt's words - IT IS OPEN SPACE... we can do
everything...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't think we have some loses, at least I did
not see them. May be Birgitt can add something?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>we just worked on them smoothly, coming back to the
room in which we worked the previous days and which was rented beforehand for
the press conference for the day 3 of our training, but up to 4 o'clock, nearly
the same time we were asked if we could move to the other room...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>if not to make a tragedy, does it work always like
this. but we have all walls which we could find the spare place.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>ok</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thank you for your idea. I will think on this next
time. I have one more musical instrument except tibetian bells and simply bells.
the comus - the altay musical instrument which you can play with your mouth and
throat...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>best wishes to you</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>we were talking about you, Harrison, saying that
you is always the one of the first people answering our questions on the list,
what we can not say in our Intertraining list - just no answers - not from
members, not from Board... not from friends, so we decided to make OS-Russian
list to talk on Russian for people who doesn't know English... don't know yet if
it will work the same way...</FONT></DIV>

nuisance, but in my experience, it is not fatal. In fact it can add. Once in a
two day Open Space we changed rooms three times! But by the second time we had
the operation down pat. Instead of grumbling about the idiocy of the hotel
(which was considerable) we organized a massive parade (300 folks) carrying
everything we needed. The fact that we went right through the lobby made
something of a point. And by the time we made the third change we had added
fifes and drums to the entourage. I can't say the hotel management was
pleased, but Open Space was alive and well for sure. And everybody got the
point that it is not so much the destinations as the journey which counts. I
suppose there was another lesson as well -- it is always all about Spirit.
Keep that moving and the practical details seem to fall into place -- or
change.<BR><BR>Harrison<BR><BR><X-SIGSEP>
