I suggest 98% of us carry on as we always have And the other 2% edit more carefully what they say if they have worries
Maybe I have got these numbers wrong, but as someone who knows what goes on at least 100 listserves, yours is the most interesting, practical, communal, caring and open; and we need as near as 98% as we can to keep on opening up. The world needs the spirit of open space shouted from the rooftops, nudged into dark places by the moles on humanity's side, and it needs it urgently. Surely the peacemaking application side demonstrates that- indeed the wholly human and transparent principles of open space seem to me to be many desperate communities last chance at finding sustainability. This is why I feel compelled to write this way. But I know of myself I am more of a messy fool than an even facilitator so if by chance this reads hurtfully to anyone, I am sorry, I just don't possess in my own skillset the all round communal conversational competence most of you do, but I do feel the urgency of open, and will try to voice it...
