 I loved this post!  Especially "things get into history for different reasons and then remain after those reasons no longer apply."  Karen Bueno

Subject: [Oe List ...] Further thoughts on the future - the easy one


The easy issue I raised was what is the difference between the OE and Dialogue listservs, given (if it is true) that the people on the two lists are mostly the same and there are a lot of double postings.


You might respond by starting with these statements:



I am on both listserves because . . .

I am on only one listserv, the ______ listserve, because . . .

I agree, there is no difference and they should be combined. Here's why . . . 

The OE listserv is for ____________ and the Dialogue listserv is for __________




At my advanced old age (as I am reminded on these lists), I of course no that things get into history for different reasons and then remain after those reasons no longer apply. The OE listserve was initiality to address concerns related to sexual abuse of the emerging generation in the order, but this is not longer addressed on that listserve.


In my view the OE listserve is more about the personal lives of former members of OE, but then when I joined the Dialogue listserve I found that it concerned almost the same thing.


By the way, I'm not expecting the listserves to be combined, simply because (because what I'm not sure).


Still some may find this an interesting topic. I'm inclined to go back to OE only because I joined these conversations to stay in touch with those dear colleagues with whom I shared an important part of my life.
