Greetings Peaceful Warriors:
As my Event page shows, I have a busy seminar and workshop schedule in 2008, across the US and around the world. I hope to see some of you and say hello personally.
A personal goal of mine in 2008 is to meet many of you face to face. My pledge to you is to remain available and accessible, in a form suitable to your interests and resources.
Most of my seminars and workshops range from free booksignings to shorter events to weekend workshops and the occasional special events such as 7-day retreat in Costa Rica (2009) or an upcoming Life- Purpose Cruise to Alaska this September.
For now, here are some current items that may interest you.

SCIENTIFIC CONTROVERSY
Here’s a counter-point to the widely-accepted greenhouse theory of global warming articulated by Al Gore, scientist Oleg Sorokhtin, a Merited Scholar and member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, acknowledges that extreme-weather conditions are likely related to CO2 concentration in the atmosphere — but that our human influence on Global Warming, and the threat of same, may not be as powerful as we think. In fact, he predicts we are going into a period of global cooling.

NOTE: Dr. Sorokhtin is one of a number of scientists who has been paid by Exxon-Mobile oil, which may impact the objectivity of his work and conclusions. For another perspective, see the sobering and visionary book: Plan B 3.0 by Lester Brown.
Meanwhile, as clear-thinking, good-hearted people we are, we can still do what we can to recycle, avoid-waste, and practice a balanced economy.
CLOSING COMMENTS
On a personal note, in case you’re curious, I’m working on a new book. It’s too early to write about, but I can tell you that it will be a short, readable, and hopefully moving novel about a miracle dealing with life, and death, and life. More later.
Meantime, take good care of yourself. Remember to breath deeply, relax into life, and focus on the quality of each moment!
Good journeys,
Dan
