Replying to LO26879 --

I got a good laugh reading it again...
For those who have not YET been stimulated enough to read the message, At
seems to indicate a new practice for leaders... Delivering periodic
droppings.
By the way, a good way to find older LO postings is http://www.google.com
and use site:www.learning-org.com as one of your search terms. (But, for
some reason, that doesn't find the message sought here. I would really
like to have my own search index running on the LO site!)
