On the morning of Monday 3/2, I had to make a decision. Do I cancel a symposium scheduled for Saturday 3/7 that could attract some 400 people because of the COVID-19 or not? Further, the title of the symposium was “The New Health Age of the 21st Century” the third symposium of 2020, produced […]
Note: This first appeared on The Sarasota Institute web site, a new entity launched a few months ago. It is being reprinted here for two reasons. First, the readership of this 11 year old blog is far larger than that of the new TSI. Second, I am hoping that if you do enjoy deeper thought […]
The first ever Face the Future Conference to be held May 4-6, 2015 in Albuquerque, NM.

The definitions of transformation are several: the act or process of transforming, the state of being transformed, change in form, appearance, nature, or character. Don’t those definitions feel like what has been already going on in your life and the world? Many of us […]
Last week I wrote about being pleasantly surprised by a short speaking tour of Saskatchewan. In every other place I have visited in the past three months there has been extreme pessimism and concern about this Great Recession of 2008-2010/11. In last week’s column I described how three different groups of CEOs, business owners and […]
One of Salvador Dali’s greatest paintings is called “The Persistence of Memory”. Last week the results of a new study were published in Science magazine that conclusively prove the physical nature of that persistence. In what other scientists have called a ‘foundational study’ a team of researchers from America and Israel have discovered and documented […]
