I think that if all discussions are keep together, more diversity will be included, and a better and quicker learning will be possible for each one and all of us.
Artur >> Artur, your comment corresponds to my feeling that the conversations should be in one place, with all of us free to read or not as we wish. I personally have very little patience for tracking down a subject through multiple websites or other venues. And I am remembering a what a wise man once told me when I remarked that I was cleaning my desktop: "Don't get it too clean--when you have a variety of things on your desk, they breed, or develop a synergy which you would never discover if you keep them separated." I'm sure this is relevant to an electronic desktop as well. My online desktop is piled as high as the physical desk in the next room--and I am thriving on the variety of viewpoints and the synergy. Facilitation is more a matter of who you are than what you do, and I see us exploring new parts of our being under the stress of this tragedy. So I think it's a good thing.
