hi durwin,
you had left a message on the 'integral psychology' thread that you were 'presenting on feminist therapy on tuesday'. i took that, incorrectly, to mean you were presenting at some sort of conference. terminology can definitely be a problem! ambiguities can lead to serious misunderstandings. for example, do you mean two and a half out of seven days, or out of five days? in the latter case, you could actually be present four and a half out of the seven days of a week! my guess is five days, and i often go with a guess for practical reasons--it would be too much trouble to get more precise information, but i could easily be wrong.
in my case, i don't mind being wrong, as long as people inform me, which you've done. i feel it's better than either assuming i'm right or pestering others unduly about what exactly do they mean. in the case of the integral psychology article in aqal journal, however, i feel we have an appropriate occasion to discuss terminology, so that we can begin to understand each other better.
hope you had a good presentation and are now enjoying the presence of your daughters (have i got that right?),
