Maybe I can do a posting to all of our IAPCT Members for the 17 July meeting unless you or Eva are doing so already.
That would be great, @richardhpfau! Thanks!

Hi Matt
I’m sorry I couldn’t make it. It would be great (for me, anyway) if you or someone else who attended the conversation could summarize some of the main points that were made about conflict. I would be very interested in learning what you folks came up with.
Best, Rick
Hi Rick, thank you for your interest in these meetings! I hope you can join us and perhaps even host one if you like. We would really appreciate your participation.
In the last pct conversation there were participants from the UK, Europe, North America, and South America. Some of them got to know PCT recently. The meeting revolved around some difficult personal experiences of conflict (and reorganization) that some of the attendees shared. This led to an interesting discussion on the following themes:
- The relationship between internal and external conflict.
- Determining the necessity of reorganization for conflict resolution.
- Distinguishing between conflict from “chronic” conflict.
- Possible “positive” aspects of conflict
- Exploring the connection between conflict, freedom, and distress
These are the themes I can recall, but I believe there were others too. Most of them were discussed with consideration of the personal experiences shared by the attendees. I apologize for not giving more details here as I didn’t take notes. Perhaps for future meetings, we can ask if someone would like to summarize and post the key points here.
Once again, we would love to have your participation in future meetings.
Cheers
Matias
Thanks Mat. That sounds great. I’m really sorry I missed it but I will try to make the next one.
Best, Rick

sorry, I forgot to vote 
I would have voted the ‘telling others about PCT’ topic, so I think I’m lucky.
See you soon!

It is Rick Marten’s birthday today.
Thanks Fred. It is indeed!! And Gary Cziko sent me this very appropriate comic.
I think the chances of my having been born on Feb. 29 (which would have made this either my 19th or 20th birthday depending on which leap year surrounding my actual birth year I was born in) were actually 1/ (365*4+1), so Frazz was off by 1.
Best, Rick
