I agree completely. Now consider this, how can a Learning Organization
exist when it will consider only one political/ business format because
the alternative is "un-patriotic"? Remember when the question was asked
late last year about the success and happiness of the business people in
the German structure. The answer given was that the people he knew were
generally better off then the people on the same level here. The silence
was deafening. I believe it was the last post on that string.
