I wanted to celebrate the Living Legacy with a little humor. So today I'm offering the wisdom of that great philosopher Yogi Berra to all my colleagues, both in Techny and otherwise. I'm just layin' low and being otherwise. So here's my top ten Yogi quotes. (Just to make sure the glass is at least half empty, I picked more than ten.) You figure out what they mean! And bank on it.
There are some people who, if they don't already know, you can't tell 'em.
This is like deja vu all over again.
We have deep depth.
We made too many wrong mistakes.
We're lost but we're making good time.
When you come to a fork in the road, take it.
You can observe a lot by watching.
If the people don't want to come out to the ballpark, nobody's going to stop them.
It ain't over 'til it's over.
It ain't the heat, it's the humility.
It was impossible to get a conversation going, everybody was talking too much.
The future ain't what it used to be.
You should always go to other people's funerals; otherwise, they won't come to yours.
I really didn't say everything I said.
Even Napoleon had his Watergate.
Laughing and crying all the way to the bank,
Marshall

Dear Colleagues,

I have watched the list serve messages about the ICA include 
embittered attacks on the Board and I am saddened by it. It is not 
surprising in the light of the reality that the literally thousands 
of us who both received our life (via RS-1) and gave our lives in the 
Spirit Movement have both a profound sadness and an anger about the 
fact that what we did and what we were/are and what we dreamed about 
putting into history seems to have been dismissed as irrelevant, or 
not to be included. To me, the Living Legacy event is but a shadow 
of what is really the living legacy, and that is the thousands of us 
who are still giving our lives to make the world responsive to the 
Lord of History, if I can use that language. Be that as it may, it 
serves no purpose, in my mind, to continue to castigate the Board. 
Their deeds and decisions will be judged by the Lord of history just 
as the deeds and decisions of the rest of us. If they can bring into 
being something new and great, in the name of ICA, then so be it. It 
would be appropriate for all of us to pray that they do. They have 
to live with the reality of how people were treated and we can decide 
to say no (or yes) to what they have done, and move on. It does them 
and us no good, in my opinion, to vilify their motives or intents. 
Please, let it be, and let us continue to keep our faces and hearts 
moving toward the future. It needs all of us, and it will take all 
of us and many many more the rest of lives. So let's get on with it.

With respect and love to all of my fellow Order/Movement members.

Jack Gilles
