the tone
Great discussion. I'm just listing the bits and pieces that I like from what I've read.
It appears that the last few weeks in August are vacation time for many. Doc John himself says he is booked until after the first week in September. I think we should use this time doing just as we are in this thread - there is plenty to discuss. Then we should plunge into the email database. Who what when where and how can be discussed prior to this time when everyone is available.
Names - I think philosophy is good for in the mission statement and accompanying introduction, but I like the idea of a more business-sounding tone for the actual organization or group. Academics and business people will hopefully be using it. 'Solutions' fits this tone, as well as patients as 'consumers'. We are going 'global' and you can put e- in front of just about anything. I think it should be action oriented as Peg said.
I hate to say it, but our hope, no matter how defined, has not been a priority for any changing agents thus far.
two cents,
paula
