I also want to add that Daniel's materials are being discussed by some outside of his circle. Healing a Broken World has a small following—it sold about 200 copies and got some media attention too (a GAIAM TV interview). Liz Cratty and Jeff Culter have a significant curriculum project at the U of Oregon, and Marty Risacher, Rosemarie Stallworth, and I are working on a new edition and have had numerous discussions about how to proceed. I think social sustainability as a movement has a big future if we can wrestle up a better edition, which is our intention—provided we can also wrestle up a marketing budget. This new edition will be out in about 8 months from now, and my sense is that we (Marty, Rosemarie, and I) will circulate with the book and speak in venues around the country. The connection with Cratty and Cutler will also blossom as well, I expect. They will give a talk at my conference in June and will train the participants in how to create an SSDT. Soon this will grow beyond the benign cult around Daniel in to something with a life of its own, I believe.

Hi all,
While I believe Daniel is sincere in what he is trying to do, my concern is (I believe that similarly to thought adjusters being limited in what they can convey to us human types by the extent of information the individual human already has) that Charles understanding / and ability to convey information about Ukraine/Syria, (for example) may be limited by the framework of knowledge Daniel has in his own consciousness (such as constrained by commercial/corporate/U.S. based news sources alone) or, that Daniel's human understanding/interpretation of whatever he may be hearing from Charles could be unduly influenced by same.
Sorry for that one long run-on sentence, but that form best captures my thought on the matter.
With lovenlightenlife,
Dave
