Eric,
Your conversations with Jeff have persuaded me that being
is more important than either doing or thinking. I'm quite
certain that the next time someone asks me, "Are you more
a doer or a thinker," I will reply, "I feel like a beer."

:}I ask mainly because I am trying to work through ideas about what methods
:}best create change in society. I guess I am interested in "the grand scale
:}of change that will save the world next week", or at least before things
:}get really ugly. I'd be interested to hear from you, and different people,
:}about what kinds of things have been an influence for you. It seems that
:}most people on this list (in my life?) are more doers; while I guess I'm
:}more of a thinker / talker. I do a lot more than I let on, but I guess I
:}enjoy the thinking part more. If I came to the conclusion that the balance
:}should be more toward doing, I think that I would change. I'd like to be a
:}part of the solution more than I want to satisfy my personal pleasures. Of
:}course, being able to do both is even better.
