This Week's Service:
In Praise of Slowness
Going against the grain of a fast-paced world. Rev. Celie Katovitch.
This Week's Drop-In Discussion: Stupidity Theory. A recent management study, not entirely tongue in cheek, argues that individuals in big organizations must stop thinking critically if the organization is to run smoothly and they are to succeed. Phil Ebersole will make a presentation and lead a discussion.
