The Hawaii chapter has been meeting every other month since I got
here last year, (The first time ever that it has ben meeting on a regular
basis), but there are only 6 of us who attend meetings. I talked with one
non-member the other day, and he basically stated that at his stage of
development, (about the same as yours and mine), he really doesn't need to come
to meetings to learn. I have been thinking of putting together a
newsletter to send out to all the tuners on the island, (about 20 of them), to
encourage them to come to meetings. I want to ask permission to
use what you just said. Maybe it will encourage some of them
to realize the importance of learning. <br>
<br>
On a similar note, just before he died at the age of 86, I asked my dad if he
had any regrets. His answer was. "I've got so much more to learn". <o:p></o:p></p>

That's why I don't understand the people who don't read the list unless they
want a specific answer, and don't seem concerned as to why things work like
they do. There has been a bunch of times something I read here saved my butt
years after I read it, when I had no earthly use for it at the time. People
mostly seem to want isolated lick and stick factoids, specific to the crisis du
jour and expiring on application, rather than long term integrated systems of
basic principles applicable to almost anything. Handing them a "what"
may solve their current problem, but if they care enough to bother to work out
the "why", they can avert a thousand future problems and get into
trouble at much higher and more interesting levels than before. <br>

already completely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry" <br>
