The safety of the fold can be a good thing... for sheep. But unless we leave the fold occasionally we never get to see what is on the other side of the hill. Innovation dies. New products offered by those outside the fold are never tried or tested and so fall into obscurity.
Personally I feel we all benefit when a member tries something new and can report back as to the results.
Many times the view on the other side of the hill is ugly but often it is not. We won't ever know unless a few of us venture forth.
Offer opinions on new ventures but take it easy on the ridicule until the folly is proven.
KKROFFTNow occurs everywhere, simultaneously. But it doesn't have to be experienced the moment it happens. Every now that ever was is still exactly when it was, when it was now.
Then, in terms of perception, is nothing more than all the nows that are no longer now. Thus, the difference between now and then is when. --The Waystoppers Users' Manual
