yes, it's the famous one percent rule, but let's face, running just one org is hard ... imagine just 50 of us running 1700 ..... so the real figure is at least 1700 times 'x', with x depending on the size of the organisation ...<br>
<br>now of course, the real secret is that are really really running all those x's (shssss don't tell anyone)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jul 31, 2011 at 9:51 PM, Jon Husband <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jon.husband@gmail.com">jon.husband@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Even if its true, you can think of these 50 guys as a kind of steering group. Running a 'Cooperative' myself, I can tell you that it's only the same 6 people who really ever do anything. It's the way things go, I think.<br>

he's always been of the cynical type, I interviewed him for technocalyps, but he does mean well even that one is certainly sarcastic ... but the answer is of course a very clear no ... there is indeed a vast conspiracy out there ..<br>
