MOO conversation / the SEA metaphor

I'm Arik Caspi, and I share some of the same difficulties as Jay. I feel like a ship arriving too late to learn "what can we do that's useful with a MOO ?"

I've been trying to swim this sea with a group of students at Tel Aviv University. This group is a unique mix. To find out more about this salad of minds, go back to the group .

However, we're still waiting for the ship to arrive and save us. In the meantime, let's think about swimming. (Go to Netsearch and type "swimming".). Our ancestors used to swim a lot. Studying the Talmud is a way of swimming. Can the situation of studying the Talmud be considered a MOO? Where is this ship?

Thinking again ..... "Why should our swimming be connected to having to get somewhere? Why should we have to limit the joy of "MUDding" with pedagogical aims? Isn't MUDding a new Deus ex machina?

Maybe it's more frutful to swim and try to use the swimming activity as a lesson. First, let's... Whoo, Whoo, (sound of swimming)
