@allenhollub Concerning your take on Fun! in agile coaching: perhaps some of what the coaches are trying for is what Simon is taking about and so the fun might not be bad

Imagine mediating a conflict between two nice people. Plan to help them resolve their conflict. Now apply the same plan to your conflict.

I have a #perlite #concrete #flowerpot curing right now. Might put out pics tomorrow.


Good stats/recipes for perlite use in #concrete: perlite.org/library-perlit… Still very strong, much lighter than with pure sand.
