"I am the Dreambuilder. I am co-creator with God, and with you. I am your humble servant. Yet do not mistake my humility for powerlessness. For I am of God, a Holy Man, on a Holy Mission--In the service of the Lord my God, and in the service of His people, and of you. For this is the world where dreams come true. We dream in our heart, fashion in our minds, and make with our hands. We act from our Power, from our love of building, from our love of God. For we do God's Work. We are God's hands, His eyes, His ears, His heart. So tell me your dream. Share with me your Vision. And let us pray. We pray together for strength. We pray together for courage and guidance. We act with HOPE knowing that we are heard. Together, we will succeed. We will build the dream we now share, and Bless this world forever. Amen. "

Timothy Wilken, MD writes: Synergy at its most basic simply means "working together." Synergic science is then the study of "working together." As science has progressed in helping us understand the human condition, it is now clear that we are an interdependent species. Sometimes I depend on others, and sometimes others depend on me. Another important fact of being in interdependent species is we share the same environment—the same reality. At home, we share the same living space with friends or family. If I turn the heater thermostat up, the room will become warmer for everyone. Control of that reality is shared. If I start yelling and screaming, things will get much noisier for everyone. Control of that reality is shared. If I make a mess or don't clean up the kitchen, then we are all living in that mess. This is just as true in the workplace, our neighborhoods, our communities, and in fact in the whole world. We live on a single planet, we all share the same water, the same air and the same resources of the single small planet. Because control of reality is shared, if I foul the water or air, I foul your water and your air. Whatever I do, will effect you. Whatever you do, will effect me. If we work together and act responsibly, we can minimize the harm we do each other, and maximize the benefits of solving our problems together. Freedom of action in a shared environment is a privilege, not a right.

Personal knowledge publishing and its uses in research. Quote: "In this document, I analyze an emerging form of knowledge sharing that I call personal knowledge publishing. Personal knowledge publishing has its roots in a practice known as "weblogging" that has been rapidly spreading on the World Wide Web over the last three years. It is a new form of communication that many expect will change the way people work and collaborate, especially in areas where knowledge and innovation play an important role."
Comment: Nice, lengthy piece. [Serious Instructional Technology]

Abraham Lincoln. "When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion, kind unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and true maxim that 'a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.' So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the great highroad to his reason, and which, once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing him of the justice of your cause, if indeed that cause is really a good one."
