Marks,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=859214207-19042004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Nice
to hear from you. Hope you counted me among those 120 contributers. It was
great to meet you at Whidbey Isl. And hope to visit Nova Scotia just before the
conference you mentioned. Spring in Novosibirsk just started- still melting
snow. sometimes even snowfalls. But greengrass already appeared in some
places.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

all;</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial size=2>The
lurking/sharing yo yo is a wonderful feature of this List Serve- and I enjoy
both. Thanks to so many for the open contributions and the many tips for daily
life and work. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been counting
those that have contributed since the turn of the year & I get 120 folks-
and from over 30 countries. This is the kind of globalization that we all
benefit from.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial size=2>In January, many
of you gave me advice on doing an Open Space for a small, intimate community
that I was part of. It went well and we created a covenant of who we are,
which speaks loudly to us. However, I must admit that those of you who
"warned" me against doing it myself as a community member spoke a lot of
truth. It all worked OK, and we are expected to take turns facilitating and
providing inspiration- but I must say that it was, in my assessment, my
least successful OS facilitation.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now I have been
invited to facilitate for an exciting event in the field of "education as
transformation". It is another example of healthy globalization. Those of you
who are interested in this vital dimension of education might want to check
out its web page found on the attached document. Also, they have made this
event extremely accessible financially- $480 for the week for everything
(except travel- and for that there could be help). I would appreciate your
comments on the event and how I could best introduce Open Space into the mix.
But ALSO, IF YOU NOW ANY FOLK WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN BEING THERE FOR THIS
WEEKLONG EVENT- and especially some in the 15-26 year old range- please pass
on this one pager.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=443552423-18042004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Spring is bursting
in the Pacific North West of North America. I had a chance to take in the Art
of Hosting Event on Whitby Island in February. It was wonderful - highly
recommend it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
