my reaction as well…although they way the teacher was praised seemed more along the lines of a kindergarten class.

I went through a couple of these training courses. They were usually called ‘Team Buildng’ exercises in the UK.

The ‘coping mechanism’ for a ‘breakout’ group is quite simple though, just breakout to some tables near the hotel bar.

Dinocrat,

Your post is a good replica of the thoughts going through my mind as I watched the televised part of the Summit.

The next 4 years may seem very long but the degree to which Obama seeks consensus is a great positive. Such an inherent brake on ‘progress’. The landscape, I suspect, will be little changed come November 2012.

‘Mutatis Mutandis’ really.

Didn’t last night’s speech solve all our problems? I expect the DOW to open at 10,000 and rise to 12,000 by Friday’s close. We are saved. All our population will be college graduates. Bad teachers will be laid off. I can see unicorns and rainbows already.

Then I woke up and went to work, remembering that the unindicted conspirators responsible for this mess were still in Congress and have learned nothing.

The suit is empty… The emperor has no clothes in reverse.

Unfortunately, this guy, along with San Fran Nan, are working on the reenactment of the Fall of the Roman Empire. To be presented before the mid-term elections…

I think they called this “Organizational Effectiveness” circa 1990.

Good Lord.
