True enough, John --

However, what I'm hoping for is not so much comprehensivity with respect 
to each and every aspect of our past as the things we as individuals 
especially value and feel could be of significant value to colleagues 
emerging and yet to be.  That might cut the list down to more manageable 
size.

Indeed, there may even be one or two components of our history that we'd 
not recommend others appropriate.  For example, I'm not sure whether 
Majuro the bull or driving permeators to their work mornings in the old 
Hamje car, where the driver could detach the steering wheel and hand it 
round to the terrified passengers, are things that I'd personally add to 
this list.  Great sources of stories, to be sure--perhaps even of some 
learnings--but they could probably be left off the list of things we 
particularly want to pass on.

Still, now that I think about it, it would be fun to collect some of 
those bits of our history as well, wouldn't it?  Anyone up for starting 
that list??

And many thanks, John, for coming up with something I'd never have 
remembered without your prompting: Ignation Retreats, for God's sake!
