<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4">One member told me after the session that she thought it would be embarrassing for the Church if members of the public saw a story about this. It was more a matter of embarrassing the church than of personal embarrassment. Another said she thought a story should wait until after the second meeting. A summary might be useful for anyone who missed the first meeting but attends the second, like the clips you get at the beginning of a TV show that review what happened in previous episodes. But there aren't likely to be many in that situation.</font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4"><br></font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4">I'm only the editor of Confluence, I don't usually write the stories and I don't need to write summary of this session, I just thought it would be helpful. If one of the organizers wants to write one, perhaps after the second session, I can include it in the September issue. I can also put in a link to anyone's statement if they want to send it to me. But this can certainly wait until September when the group has had time to decide what it wants to do, if anything. </font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4"><br></font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4">Human motivation is complex, we all have different layers of motivation. I wonder, for example, about the motivation for not making these sessions accessible on Zoom. We spent a lot on that technology and Ralph was in the control booth. Why not use it? Is it because Kat might have watched it? Zoom wouldn't be available to the general public. This affects me because I am one of the ones who is in line to speak at the next meeting, but I expect to be in Washington DC. </font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4"><br></font></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><font size="4">Why do we find it easier to talk about somebody behind their back than face to face? </font></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Jul 27, 2023 at 7:32 PM nwolske17--- via fuusmchat <<a href="mailto:fuusmchat@fuusm.org">fuusmchat@fuusm.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div>
