Here we begin to consider all 26 essential functions and the institutions that we have and that we could have to take care of them all within the context of the specific environment and the specific political systems. It was interesting to consider how close different functions were to the environment and to community governing.

I always begin public presentations with there questions: Who is "We?" Where is "Home?" and How long will we care?

Now it occurs to me that the question "Who is We?" resides on the political side. "Where is Home?" resides on the ecological side. And "How long will we care?" resides in the institutional space. This three domain exploratory diagram invites right sizing our answers.

I claim that these three questions are always already answered and the their answers seldom fit the situations we find ourselves in.

I suggest using the arrows diagram tool and making assessments of institution types ane localness along with assessments of urgence.

From that little cave drawing one could select a few functions to look at more closely, again in the contests of environment and political systems or nested communities and their governments.

I wonder if this diagram might not lead to slow syntegrations, groups of five+2ish to focus on understanding particular essential function, with up to about 12 interconnected functions being actively explored at the same time. Have each member of a group of 5 be on at least one other group of five. Create cave drawings for each domain. Create strategies, tactics, and actions. Are there currently small groups that meet and consider some of these domains? What might help them?
