. I was just as happy when all the fish finally died.

moi ? ... I love fish...

particularly:

Copper River Salmon (from Alaska in June)
Swordfish.
Dover Sole

and many others, particularly cooked with garlic and white wine. -GG-

I can safely say this to you without your fearing that I'm going to start draining the blood of chickens or sticking pins in dolls--it was a real born-again type experience

wow... fearing ? i was hoping you would suggest it !!!

Suffice to say that I quickly came to believe that consensus was possible if you just had the right attitude and used the right techniques.

i agree... the difference between you and i, is quite simple. whatever patience my DNA was supposed to have been instructed to me, was instead, re-directed to you, (you probably have even more than that)

I wouldn't have believed if I hadn't personally been able to design and facilitate processes that ended up with consensus decisions from people who had been at each others' throats. It's been awesome.

so... how come the reps & dems can't do it ? do you think is because the influence of the evil RW's in the equation ?

I'd rather see the money we spend on prisons spent on training like that.

i second that... and i would say, the earlier, the better.

None of which means that I don't know how to have fun.

of course, of course... at such time is when you start with the blood draining together with the pins & dolls -g-

but you did not answer my question:

do you think we are all institutionable... i mean we, in this thread ? -GG-

Karen...

kidding aside.

i am impressed by your ability to calmly disect whatever post you are answering. your ability to keep cool simply amazes me . i do not even have 10% of the patience you have. in addition, you write very clear.

once i have spent the little i have... i turn on the internal "ignore" button i have in my brain and presto ! the mosquito-like-influence is eliminated.
