090701 - Follow up ref SDS 14 0000, ref SDS 13 0000.
090702 -
090703 - Responded to Jeannette's request for a shorter piece to publicize
090704 - Asilomar.  There were misunderstandings caused by difficulties
090705 - Jeannette had receiving the materials submitted originally.  This
090706 - record exemplifies the problem being addressed in the NWO paper and
090707 - the theme of Asilomar. She seems more open now to using the material I
090708 - have submitted.

091101 - Per Jeannette's request revised my letter, ref DIP 2, to explain how
091102 - the Asilomar Conference will develop the ideas in the NWO article.  My
091103 - revised letter today, ref DIT 1, develops stronger explanation of
091104 - "truth as a moving target," following up work at ref SDS 14.
091105 -
091106 - Used the material from MacNamera's book and from Kissinger, as planned
091107 - on 960429. ref SDS 14 9640, to support the Neuman quote, ref SDS 4
091108 - 0943.  Was not able to develop the point about telling the truth, per
091109 - ref DIP 2 9849 and ref DIP 2 0428; discussed it with Jeannette below,
091110 - she may do something with it, because, after she read my letter, she
091111 - likes the idea. ref SDS 0 3920
091112 -
091113 - I drew a stronger correlation from the first letter to PMI, ref DIP 2
091114 - line 100 on "induced learning", between the need for analysis cited by
091115 - MacNamera and Kissinger and what I call converting information into
091116 - knowledge, ref DIT 1 line 87.  Would liked to have made the
091117 - correlation with the "turning water into wine" quote from Time
091118 - magazine, per ref SDS 6 line 317.  Decided to save it for another
091119 - occassion.
091120 -
091121 -    [See follow up at ref SDS 15 line 86.]
091122 -
091123 - Explained rationale for advertising Asilomar using General Hatch's
091124 - quote, ref DIT 1 line 36, responding to Jeannette's concerns at ref
091125 - SDS 13 line 96.  This reflects the purpose of advertising discussed
091126 - with Jim originally at ref SDS 5 line 156, and letter to Jeannette at
091127 - ref SDS 8 line 269.

0914 - 0846 called Jeannette
0915 -
091501 - Continual Bumbling Caused by Moving Target of Truth
091502 -
091503 - I asked Jeannette if she recognized the need to use technology for
091504 - empowering leadership to learn the truth so they can act on it and
091505 - thereby create a "happier truth to tell." ref DIP 2 9849
091506 -
091507 - Jeannette said her letter last night to me was not based on having
091508 - read the letter to Jim at ref DIP 2.  She reported difficulty opening
091509 - the Word file, and so she had only read my transmittal to her......
091510 - ref DIP 3.  Today, she got help from a colleage at the office and has
091511 - been able to unzip the letter to Jim.  She has now read it and feels
091512 - as a result that her concern about not wanting to quote Johanna
091513 - Neuman, ref DRP 4 9640, was misplaced.
091514 - ..
091515 - Jeannette apologized for her sharp language, ref DRP 4 9742, and
091516 - said my point on telling the truth is powerful. ref DIP 2 9849  She
091517 - said don't worry about keeping to the 100 word criteria she mentioned
091518 - in her letter. ref DRP 4 0740
091519 -
091520 - This scenario addresses the point being solved at Asilomar, similar to
091521 - our discussion on 960326. ref SDS 5 8534
091522 -
091523 - Jeannette reached a conclusion on incomplete evidence because of a
091524 - breakdown in using the Information Highway.  She read the wrong
091525 - letter, probably because I did not explain things well enough, and the
091526 - using the best professional practices and her best intentions reached
091527 - a lot of incorrect conclusions.  She failed to disclose the basis of
091528 - her conclusion, not realizing it was necessary to do so, because the
091529 - second letter was outside her span of attention. I assumed her opinion
091530 - was based on my submission, which, in fact, she had not reviewed.
091531 -
091532 -     [On 990326 similar example with Kathleen. ref SDS 16 6900]
091533 -
091534 - It is typical "bumbling" in what Kissinger calls "Alice in Wonderland"
091535 - management reviewed on 940609. ref SDS 1 4238   Another example is the
091536 - work with IBM reviewed on 950120. ref SDS 2 0969  Another is our
091537 - discussion on 960326. ref SDS 5 8534
091538 -
091539 - People who worry about "conspiricies" need to work with the alleged
091540 - "conspirators" to see the implausability of effective conspiracy.
091541 - Conspiracy requires cooperation and this takes communication, which
091542 - requires alignment over time.  Alignment is impossible.

0918 - 1157 called Jeannette back
0919 -
091901 - Advised I have submitted a revised bit of stuff to consider for an
091902 - article.  Explained the lobbying for the Hatch quote, and that there
091903 - is stuff in there on Neuman's book, which is obviated by our
091904 - discussion earlier (above) where she apologized because her prior
091905 - concerns were based on not having read the letter to Jim.
091906 -
091907 - Jeannette said she has received the printed version of my letters,
091908 - including the material on General Hatch, that included his biography.
091909 - She said they have had it for a week, but it was in Jim's office and
091910 - she had hesitated to look for it.  As a result, misunderstandings
091911 - occurred, reflected in her email and our telecon last week, ref SDS 13
 81812 - line 79.
081813 -
081814 - We considered for a moment how our exchange on this matter reflects
081815 - the goal of the NWO paper and the Asilomar theme and thesis.  We have
081816 - been caught up in a process that delays the work by rushing ahead to
081817 - use the Information Highway.
