Rosa,

A chemist friend told me years ago that a catalyst did not really cause anything to happen, which is what I thought. He said a catalyst really lowers resistance so change can occur. For me, that presents a different set of applications of your article. Thanks for making me think again!

Hmmm ... that does put a different spin on it Dean! Resistance does create drag and push-back, and chances are we'll encounter some of it even when promoting positive change. The trick to it is not allowing the resistance to discourage you. People may listen with an early cautionary stance, but it is just caution and their warming up to your idea. Could be that we just have to match up our pace with theirs.

Terrific thought-provoking stuff. Expect a trackback in the next couple of days as I pick up the them and run down the Pink Apple path with it.
Thanks for sparking a creative thought!

Great Chris - we'll be watching and reading!
