Robert Hoekman states: "Boy, are you in the wrong place. On this list, one cannot have a dialog without the inclusion of naysayers and skeptics. : ) "
I think this dynamic is familiar to anyone that's participated in online forums over the past two decades. My approach is not to engage with baiting, but to dialog with those that pick up on at least some aspect and engage in honest dialog (as opposed to simply repeating demands for this or that - an old and tiresome debate gambit). I think it's only problematic with some of the respondents here, perhaps yourself included. Others, including some that have emailed me directly, do indeed connect with the subject, and that was expected. Perhaps if you're attending Interaction09 next week, you can join us in a higher bandwidth discussion, perhaps with some examples. I'd enjoy that opportunity in a more accomodating environment. Until then however, I'm still happy to hear other anecdotes and observations from practitioners working in situations similar to what's been adequately described here. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
