It wouldn't be exaggerating to say Jotting #66 had me floored! How often in our careers are we called heroes? To be mentioned side-by-side with a world-class educator like Lee Shulman is an honor indeed. Hudi's subsequent kind remarks about inviting participation from contractors were a breath of fresh air. And the discussion about sustainable learning that you sparked is an eye-opener, too. Wow! I have a request and a modest proposal. The request: would you mind if I formatted Jotting #66 as a web page and added it to my website? The proposal: how about putting *all* your Jottings on the web? Perhaps with a chat group or something, so that people could review back issues, participate in a forum that's not e-mail-based (aren't we all swamped already with e-mail?), and achieve circulation even outside HP? No doubt there are political ramifications to consider -- do you suppose some of the things that are said are sensitive? And we'd need to be careful to avoid the appearance of incestuousness... Still, I'm convinced this would be a valuable and welcome resource for the world! And how about getting together sometime soon? Will you be in town? Happy Chanukah! -- Dan Keller dan@keller.com http://www.keller.com 415/861-4500 voice 4500 19th Street San Francisco California, USA 94114
