Dialogue

For those who want & can follow as much of the conference online & live, we meet day to day (our 'common circle') in an ongoing Skype conference that we use to stay in touch between workshops, send instant messages, etc.

In order to have as much of an INTERACTIVE experience as possible and especially for the longer-term*  - which is very important if we are to IMPLEMENT some of the ideas in a sustainable & cooperative way - 
we have set up the 
 as a meeting place.

It's a resource that disappears when not used!

Please link to other dialogues or share as much HISTORY as you can so that we can move on, including (& transcending) past experience.

observation 
rather than protracted 
and thoughtless 
action."
