<DIV>I don´t think that is a question of being old or curmudgeonly. After all you have your own web page (and have revised it often) and you are at Facebook (aren't you too old to Facebooking?)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And one can see what is hapenning in the NING without even subscribing. Haven't you been curious to see what is hapening there?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Or are you affraid of something that is hapenning simoultaneously in many languages that you can´t neither understand nor control (no one can)? What is more close to self-organizations at work?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Isn't that, I would not say a "resistance to change" (because no one is changing, but only complementing), but a resistenace to something new and different? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please think about it, will you?</DIV>
