<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=450215016-01102001>I have not had time
to read with relish some of the continuing threads. I have used the delete key
with ease, because I know that if I am really interested, ready and able read
the postings, I can go to the archives. Like Barry, the likelihood of me going
to metanet is slim to none. Michael aptly pointed out that the list is about
sharing and developing our knowledge as open space facilitators. I understood
that to be the key function, but it is indeed open space and those who have
passion carry the conversation and thread onward. What has really struck me is
that there have been a few postings from Birgitt about where she is moving with
open space and genuine contact. It seems to me to be a rich thread for
discussion and learning, but the silence on the topic has been deafening. I
sadly was not a part of the events in Raliegh this time due to unexpected events
in our personal lives in the Cooper household, but I am among those who intend
to be there in 2002. I have had little time to contribute to the list, but it
strikes me as odd. Is it not safe to pursue this thread of learning? Is there
not passion for it? Just an observation.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
