Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / November 2004Taking responsibility requires taking action
As a group of people with an interest in the subjects that have been and will be discussed at sci.med.dentistry , we need to consider how it is that we function. Are we only a group of individuals or are we a group? What is the significance of being "a group"? What do we, as a group, have to gain or lose by what takes place in smd? What do we, as individuals, have to gain or lose by what takes place in smd? Is smd bound to forever be disorganized? Is organization in the interest or disinterest of a Usenet newsgroup? How does a newsgroup's participants determine the "value" of the group to the "outside world"? How does a newsgroup's participants determine the "lack of value" of the group's activity's to the "outside world"? Is it possible to set a good example for others by taking responsibility for our group's "actions"?

The "group" will take care of itself. I think you get it. Steve  SignatureMark & Steven Bornfeld DDS http://www.dentaltwins.com Brooklyn, NY 718-258-5001 Yes, I do "get it". Thanks for the reply, Steve.

And our phone service at home is out for the second time in four days... with no repair planned until late Thursday. So I apologize if my posts seem out of sync.

Thank God, we are a group of individuals. > What is the significance of being "a group"? In the context of Usenet, not a helluva lot. > What do we, as a group, have to gain or lose by what takes place in smd? Depends on what "the group" means to me. Myself, (I like to think) I have a life! > What do we, as individuals, have to gain or lose by what takes place in smd? Ditto above. > Is smd bound to forever be disorganized? I hope so! > Is organization in the interest or disinterest of a Usenet newsgroup? It is rarely good. The best that you can hope for is a benevolent dictatorship, a very efficient system that unfortunately seldom survives a change in leadership. > Is it possible to set a good example for others by taking responsibility > for our group's "actions"? No. Vaughn Thank you for adding your thoughts, Vaughn. (Your answers are just as I anticipated! That's a sign that I've been paying attention to who you are all these years ... with pleasure!)
