I believe I remember a recent post detailing how attempts to loosen the grip of said ideas resulted in rather unpleasant and spirited rebuff. But you are correct, I believe, that the number of groups of converts are shrinking (thankfully). Tim _______________________________ Timothy O.

Gosh Michael. I'm pretty surprised to see a self-proclaimed "divergent thinker" cleave so closely to Maslow. I don't thin that much of anyone beyond (extremely non-divergent) business departments think of that scheme as being much more than a quaint historical artifact. Yes, of course people want food an shelter before they get serious about the "higher" think in life, but I don't think that really counts as a novel insight about human nature. Aristotle (among others) had been there, done that. Try the /Nicomachean Ethics/. Please continue diverging. Chis -- Christopher D.
