11:46:56 From Janice Hall to Everyone:

11:54:49 From Janice Hall to Everyone:

   What happened to Joseph Golden? I met him at the 92 Earth Summit. A group of us spent 2 weeks in Rio after the Summit planning a spacebridge. My group went back to Boulder, CO and Joseph got stuck in Rio with no way to get out and get to US. I got an ambassador friend to get him out. We had a small spacebridge with Joseph and our group from Campaign for the Earth on the Boulder Mall !!!

11:55:36 From Jim Garrison to Everyone:

   Happy to.

11:55:49 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

12:03:18 From Richard Page to Everyone:

   Sam Keen wrote: “I searched and searched for my ‘Inner Feminine’ and am pleased to report that I never found one. But to infer that sensitivity and intuition are traits belonging only to women is male-bashing…

   Yes.  I like the story.  Thank you. joseph died of a heart attack several years ago but had spent quite a bit of time in the US and Europe doing projects like you did with him that were very meaningful for him.  He told me stories of those projects and I vaguely remember a story about his adventures in Rio and how a friend helped him escape.  Thank you for being a part if his important memories.

12:19:59 From Deborah Perkins to Host and Panelists:

   Stan glad you’ve copying the chat with all the links because we can’t

12:20:44 From Stan Pokras to Everyone:

   Jim and Jim and Harriett… I’m working on a new way to stimulate civic dialog. Please ask me to explain what I’m thinking about. Citizen dialog has the potential to bring the idea of Peace to the public at the local level. And of course it can balloon to a national dialog, too.

12:20:56 From Janice Hall to Everyone:

   I was involved with the Beyond War spacebridge from US to Russia to award Physicians for Prevention of Nuclear War and also headed a huge historic spacebridge event in Austin for the Beyond War Award for the 5 Continent Peace Initiative. I remember we were all holding our breath for the moment all 5 continents would be 'hopefully' be connected - as this had never been done before. I believe it took something like a million miles of cable to make this happen at that time

12:22:58 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

   What about Romania and the NATO nations not wanting them in their countries?

12:24:15 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

   It’s like people don’t want to hear or talk about it-:(

12:24:41 From Janice Hall to Everyone:

   I thank you Jim and Harriet -- amazing work.... a lifetime of work and I honor you ( and of course you too Jodie - your work for this time in history is critical)

12:24:43 From Stan Pokras to Everyone:

   Jim, it is possible that citizen diplomacy could be a product of more active civic dialog. Please ask me about the idea for boosting civic dialog.

12:26:26 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

   And many of the young Russians who could left because they didn’t want to fight

12:26:26 From Jan Krick to Everyone:

   Yes.

12:27:08 From Leo Jacoby to Everyone:

   ::https://www.fa-mag.com/news/humanizing-with-humor-15852.html:: ("Humor can humanize a person or brand, evoking positive emotions. 'Humor demonstrates authenticity,” Tim Washer said. “It cuts through the noise.'... His advice suggested not making things too complex.  Plus, if there is over analysis, it keeps from successful storytelling. 'If you make someone laugh, it is going to work. You can’t hate something that everyone loves' ")   

   ::https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/humor-serious-business:: (2017 by Joel Stein "The reason humor works as a bridge (just go with it) is that laughter sparks the release of oxytocin, a hormone that facilitates social bonding, increases trust, and quickens self-disclosure.)

12:27:52 From Janice Hall to Everyone:

   Yes - Jim you just preempted my comment. Young people with tech knowledge to continue the conversations you and Harriet have fostered. But they need an intergenerational dialogue with people like you so they can learn and bridge what you have done with the future

12:28:36 From Jane Norton to Everyone:

   what about working with youth climate change groups to get them to integrate peace and climate issues

12:28:46 From Nina Meyerhof to Everyone:

   Yes create spaces for Young Leaders— doing that in a program called Beyond Auschwitz in that town including Ukrainian kids participating

12:28:58 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

   Yes, Jim! We were the young generation them; we need them now

12:29:04 From Richard Page to Everyone:

   Spacebridge funding included Henry and Susan Dakin’s contributions and use of their studio facilities at Link TV, which was house in the Dakin Building. Susan continues to fund the amazing Bioneer’s Conference, now in Berkeley each year…

12:34:23 From Deborah Perkins to Everyone:

   We need to awaken the Will to Peace, beyond the nations tolerating and profiting from war😏

12:34:40 From Kurt Krueger, PeaceMakers Circles/Network to Everyone:

   A vaccine that anyone can take to cure humans inhumanity to others ~
