Despite the discussion has moved on: Here is my "late hands up=94 contrib=
ution to
the list. At the moment I'm in a lurking state due to my heavy work load.=
I'm
ooking forward for better times. I hope everybody has renewed his or her =
trust
in the projection. Thanks to Eva et. al., who provides interessting infor=
mation
about how the list works and guides us gently through confusing phases of=
the
list .

CHRISTINE HAPPLE, I'm studying environmental and cultural psychology wi=
th
Prof. Alfred Lang at the University of Bern. In my thoughts and writings =
I=92m
often with the people and artifacts I met this year at the LCHC and at th=
e 5th
Dimension project created by Mike Cole et. al. in San Diego. My theoretic=
al
perspectives and confusion creators are SEM-ECO and CHAT.

To earn my living I'm involved in teacher in-service training or rather t=
he
courses on "Mensch und Umwelt=94 (Human and Environment) and "Wahrnehmung=
oder
Falschnehmung" (Perception) in Kanton Schwyz and Wallis in Switzerland.
Starting this Semester I=92m teaching two classes on "Introduction to Psy=
chology"
to the newcomers at the University of Bern.

What else: Switzerland=92s preservation or conservation (I live in a 900 =
year old
City, we are still discussing to join the EU, ...) combined with America=92=
s
innovation is a terrific sustaining and creative mix. XMCA helps me to ke=
ep the
innovative part alive. Thanks to all of you, who are part - either in a l=
urking
or active state - of this evolutive interchange.
