[Oe List ...] Salmon: Response to Marilyn Crocker

[W. J.]

Maybe I zoned out somewhere between the pressure points and the whistle points (or maybe I just don't get the point), but I vaguely remember there is a difference. Whistle points are, unobviously and possibly unobtrusively, where you stand and whistle to release the avalanche of change (and hope you jump out of the way before you blow the whistle)--at least according to our social analysis. And pressure points are where (to insert my phrase--which could be totally OTL) there's obvious congestion. Something about where the rubber hits the road, or was that more of a squeaky wheel thing?
Comments? Answers? Hello, out there!
Marshall

Marilyn--
    You said it correctly and I did 
not. Memory fades on the nomenclature, plus "old age" is the best damn excuse, 
eh what?  Thanks, Marilyn
    Whatever the term, the Whistle 
Points are welcome information offering a spark of hope in a rather bleak 
world. Everyone I talk to is keenly aware of the imbalance, but they have no 
idea that there is a plan on how to re-balance the social process. 
    Interestingly, many already are 
doing little replicable projects, but they have no way to name what they are 
doing so as to understand the larger, global context. They are a part of a new 
emerging consensus and living unawakened to the significance of what they are 
doing. We are living on the cusp experiencing the collapse of the Modern 
WorldView while giving birth to the Post-Modern worldview.
    I spelled this out in a 
conversation with one of the Social Justice Professors at Kansas Wesleyan 
University here in Salina. (Interestingly, he reminded me that I recruited him 
as a student to come to this college from a Chicago high school.) He 
immediately could relate to the triangles and explain them to one of 
his colleagues.  
    The "Hundredth Monkey" reigns? 
    Inner Peace, 
    Pastor Bill
