Yeah, that would be a lot of fun. Judith once called me "poisonous"

I doubt my contribution would be well-received. She later back-tracked
and lowered her estimation of me to something like "ignorant" or
"contrarian" or somesuch, like being demoted from Villain to redshirt

didn't go, the submission-rejection process would be fun. I'll see if
I can come up with a topic. >8^D
I think Judith might have been channeling our own Doug Roberts? I know
*I* have used "contrarian" for you but it was intended to be a term of
endearment not dismissal, though I do understand how "merely contrarian"
might feel implied? I know I tend toward kneejerk contrarian around
technoutopian sentiments.
I had no idea you were already engaged with this community. I was
unaware of that Robert's daughter had taken up his legacy (reminds me a
bit of the Mead/Bateson, Dyson, Bertalanffly dynasties?
I listened to the Systems Thinking Ontario 2023:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ol5Q12G7P4 to get a bead on the tenor
of Judith's perspectives. I don't see any specific reference to Judith
at the MX workshop but I'm guessing nothing Rossenian happens in public
without Judith invited/participating?

If FRIAM raised the dollars from its members, can we send you as its
envoy to present and report back?
3/4 serious. 1/4 just a funny idea that we would have an envoy and
imagine sending you out as our lead Rosennian philosophical sparring
partner.
