<BR>
In the spirit of “Do one less thing”, today I found myself in a mode of “Do one different thing”.<BR>
<BR>
I opened space for a small group associated with an organization serving autistic children and adults here in New Jersey, USA. Passion abounds: 30 people generated 24 topics for a one-day meeting. And I had set up for five break-out spaces, but they made it into seven.<BR>
<BR>
Here’s the different thing. I placed the community bulletin board in a separate room, a spot you could not actually see from the main circle. I did this because the main circle was squeezed tightly into a space that did not conveniently allow for chairs to be moved aside to approach any of the walls. I used a nice wall in a medium-sized coffee area where I knew people would be congregating on and off all day.<BR>
<BR>
I wondered whether people would have difficulty understanding my instructions if the posting wall was not visible, but they did not.<BR>
<BR>
Anyone out there ever have to do something like this?<BR>
<BR>
