Dougie,

I found Tom's Research Note hilarious.  We have tons of stuff that is 
supposed to be transformative thrown at us all the time, and he saw the humor 
in it.  Myself, I have not read the FOB issue in depth.  I will.  I will try 
to find if any of the research cites tie-in with research on human 
development and the brain because that is my focus.  I want to see if I can 
ground my understanding on what has been established in this field.  Perhaps 
there is a simpler, more parsimonious way of understanding Kegan's results.  
Maybe there isn't.  Kegan puts his stuff out there for critique, not to be 
believed but to be analyzed and to be used if it is useful.

Tom Sticht is sui generis.  If research stands up to any threats to validity 
he will say so.  Researchers also duel and challenge, and what he writes is 
part of an academic tradition.  You are joining in the duel and challenge, as 
am I.  Let's see if anybody else wants to enter the fray.  It makes for a 
lively and sometimes hair raising list.

Speaking as one who has been frayed, I remain your obedient servant,

Andrea Wilder
