I understand about the time consumption. If it's all right I may repost
your WEB INTELLIGENCE with the links if I can find them. Any clue
would help.  I save most of my mail (sans spam) as a resource. And
sometimes I need to copy the items in the link before they disappear
off site or become some kind of pay archive.

Since I forward a lot of the good stuff, and since some folks want the
link to assess the credibility. I try to provide the info. Including the links
is a protocol we should spread through-out our lists imho.

I will try with web link, but it is much more work, and many come from
one or another list serve without that info hewre, you would have to
trace back to the listserve, then the sender to tht one, and from
there back to original source. i give the most convenient source i
can. on one post i lost the course [ i have e-mail technical problems],
sorry bt felt that posting it sithou
the source was still better than notning.

 dear friends,

 I feel a little compelled to cry "whoa there" as we become a bit tense
 about our commentaries on the disgusting news we must deal with
 as regards the condition of our world.

 I also value seeing information from websites I'd never dream of
 advocating except as examples of how far the nuts can fall away
 from their trees. And of course they do post real news as it occurs
 to them their authority figure may justify their views.

 I value all the intelligence coming through this list and wouldn't want
 this to stop. You know how difficult it is to derive the meaning, the
 intent - of sarcasm, innuendo and irony regarding another's post.
 I can see in our microcosm the same seeds of alienation that plague
 the world in endless conflict.

 Please let these misunderstandings pass.

 My other comment would be that in posting any excerpts PLEASE
 post the web link if you can possibly find it. This helps to flesh out
 the context of an important point you wish to communicate.

 I do look forward to the day when all the elements of world systems
 are integrated into a world view focused on realistic, compelling
 and convincing measures we may advocate to enhance the survival
 of our children and the world they share.

 Actually I'd be sooo happy to hear how we were going to make it
 through the next ten years.

 Tim Jones
