Bravo. Great post. In other words, the phrase means: be open. Have flexibility. Think about it; read it again. Have a "student mind." In the words of The Pirate, "always an apprentice." IT MEANS SOMETHING WE ALL STAND FOR. So, Paul, in person and in this mode you embody the qualities I look for and admire in a colleague. You are welcome to express yourself however you wish, because I trust it will be for the best, and for the good of our community. One egregious failure I will point out: YOUR FONT IS TOO SMALL. Please. I'm a pathetic old weak-eyed geezer. Have mercy. Best, David Andersen On Feb 21, 2007, at 1:04 AM, PAULREVENKOJONES wrote: > Ric (and others): > > Thanks for your kind words.
