Now, to make this easy and efficient, go to the FAQ database and enter any word or process you’d like to know more about. If nothing comes up that satisfies your need or curiosity, send those words to me and I’ll help you personally. Helping learners is my business.

Business? Yes, developing coaches of "Conversational English" for countries such as China is my long-term goal. I expect that by the year 2020, the year of visions come true, BLUM Enterprises will be the language coach broker of choice for countries where Esperanto-speaking professionals are able to help our outreach teams implement the procedures (they were trained to use) to facilitate the learning of English through (a) the learning of useful language-related tasks and (b) the learning of wisdom through debating the meaning of classical sayings.

Wisdom? Yes, the direct teaching of languages is FINE. The teaching of subjects through a foreign language is BETTER. And the learning of controversial subjects mixed with the learning of debating skills is BEST. It is that latter choice that leads to wisdom. In slightly different words: learning to make a point is good. Learning to "argue" that point is better. And learning to "debate" it without alienating opponents is by far the best process. E:P:N, by definition, focuses on contrasting forces that unite, at virtually equal ratios, to establish and preserve stability.

Eleko, Prot & Njut are learning to role model that process as they travel with one another from country to country and practice dealing with diversities, including their own.

That’s right, like electrons, protons and neutrons in atoms, Eleko, Prot & Njut have very little in common with one another, but they know that they need one another to survive "in style" as Njut likes to call it. Isn’t style or "artful survival" a fine definition for the pace set by nature? Of course. That’s why our mascots look for artful expressions in their respective surroundings and delight in sharing their thoughts and feelings about them during lunch breaks and late-night discussions.

No, Eleko, Prot and Njut have not as yet become friends; in fact, I doubt that they ever will, especially notEleko and Prot. But they have become a family. Each realizes fully that their three heads working together (on the same project) are far better than just their own.

Personally, I relate best to Njut. You, depending on your own soul-level Self, may relate better to Prot, the entrepreneur, or Eleko, the structure-loving perfectionist. But none of that really matters. What matters is that we learn to talk to one another long enough to understand why and to what extent each thinks and feels differently.

What may be the only thing they all have in common is their resolve to keep LEARNING FROM ATOMS on issues dealing with stability and efficiency. They fully realize that atoms have been doing this for a lot longer than humans have. Even their most heated debates have the stability of the whole atom in mind when outcomes depend more on collective cooperation than they do on just professional collaboration.

Aren’t these two the same? Well, not quite. Collaborating is what you do with your like-minded peers . . . before you start to work. It’s the pooling of expert knowledge during the planning process. Cooperating is what everyone does (needs to do) while working with other departments to get the job done as planned and promised. The full process is explained at clozeonline.us/ebook. A graphic on how to apply this dual process (to a class of 45) is at slides 3 and 5 of EPN-classroom2.htm or EPN_classroom.ppt.
