Hi Lynne!

Great to hear from you! Actually Lee and I don't facilitate very much any more. I haven't facilitated a local meeting in over a year, and Lee volunteered a couple of months ago, but that was his first facilitation in maybe 18 months. We have a wonderful group, and lots of very capable people who are good at facilitating a meeting. As I said, it really isn't hard if you just let people run with it.

You've "met" my daughter Cathy (on-line at least) so she knows this story up close and VERY personal! She was about 7 years old when this happened and she nearly climbed up my body when the alligators began fighting over that first chicken! She's a bleeding heart liberal university student in linguistics and my son John (her brother) is a right wing Attila-the-Hun Marine jet fighter pilot. Over the holidays we always toss out the chicken "Women in military combat" and both kids go into orbit in opposite directions! It's works every single time, and it's always a riot! <grin>

See you on Stutt-L!

Russ
