Esoteric yes, but very comprehensible ;-) At 02:44 19-11-2001, Winston Kinch wrote:
One tiny tittle of a quibble, Artur. In the nether regions of your argument, you state as follows: "I will not continue to stress my point. But I would like to ask you a question that seems to me a contradiction in your argument, but I am probably wrong..." In all fairness one must, if ever so gently, protest. This is surely an inaccurate use of a quotation from the Great Bear (Pooh), who was known to say on occasion: "At least that's what I think, but I don't suppose I'm right". I know it's a small thing, but us amateur ursinologists must try to hold our ground ... ;-)
I was not trying to quote the Pooh but as I am also an "amateur ursinologist" maybe I was influenced by him, without even noticing that... Or maybe not ;-) (Indeed I didn't know the word "ursinologist" existed, but do you know what is the translation of "bear" in portuguese? it is "urso"...)

I believe that there are other "rule changes" which affect behavior in a bounded space such as a meeting, but OST is far and away my favorite!
The difference between the rules of other methods and the ones of OST is that the former are still too "structured" to allow for Kauffman's conditions of self organization, I think... Regards Artur
