Dear Pierre and fellow G2 workers I appreciate Pierre's full-and-frank response to my 'aspects of caringness' with the List106 wiki. It is an opportunity for fellow G2 workers to also edit the wiki, both on the numbered items already commented, and the remaining List106 items which are also worthy of consideration/ comment. I have used Club of Rome methodologies to reduce complexities, and to manage multiple streams of simultaneous dialogue on multiple tasks; it can be done, here http://www.clubofrome.org/. In the meantime, I will set about full consideration of Pierre's thoughtful responses, to take the discussion forward on the topics that we have already found traction. Please join us. chris -------------------------------------------------------------------- On Dec 02, 2013 03:59 PM, Francine Mestrum wrote: > Dear Chris, > Wondering what you are referring to with this 'caringness'...??? > Francine > > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: chris williams [mailto:will0447@...] > Verzonden: 02 December 2013 01:24 > Aan: cifutur-consultations@... > Onderwerp: [Tunis Group 2 - CI futur Consult & +] Aspects of caringness > > Dear friends > > The list of 106 possible 'aspects of IC caringness' appears daunting, but I > am familiar with iterative techniques that reduce the complexity, and > highlight priorities within such a list.
