I am trained as an old fashioned behaviorist learning theorist and
through life experiences have stumbled across very different ways
trying to think about life and development (the two being about
synomymous in my thinking) like Hussrle (whose name I have probably
no certainly mis-spelled). But I have only encountered him at
a cocktail party, so to speak, in a seminar, where Bud Mehan was
a key participant. The notion of retrospective construction of meaning
became a reason for reading Shutz and so on. Ther
Knowledge is wonderfully distributed in this group. Everyone is
expert in their own circumstances. The question is whether through
interaction we are led to think/act/experience in what seem like
productively new ways.
Your reminders of MAry and Suzanne's article have been much appreciated
and your voice is a welcome asset. Whether xmca reciprocates is, of course,
another matter for you to decide.
