yep, finding out where people are coming from first, is always a wise move. Unfortunately, not the place people begin.

I went to a presentation held at SOU in '05 I believe, where SOU had asked a panel of local business owners, farmers and environmental groups what they were doing for 'sustainability'. It was interesting to see how many different views of 'sustainability' there were and it became obvious that they were not all talking about the same thing. It was apparent that what would have helped was merely asking this question first, getting some clarity on what we see 'sustainability' as. Thank you for facilitating the questioning and examining of our perceptions. :)
