May 3 2011: In fact I think it could be done with open free lessons given by members: Like on comments you can give a feedback on the teachers quality and therefor there should be a fixed time- usually with a online - video - conference and maybe interactiv whiteboard.
May 3 2011: For me the problem in risk - taking is, that we sometimes tend to take risk -believing- that we just want to solve problems. In fact causes for this risk - taking could be non - known by the decider:
- as a former risk-calucator in the health - insurance I could daily see how young men take more risks in driving than young women. But did they not both want to reach a place in time?
- you can observe in many places, that risk - taking in order "not to loose pride" seens a often times done between fighting young man.
- flying to other countries to bomb "enemies" could be another risk taken.
But what are the real individual, political reasons to take risks?
Very often - afterwords - we find that "only this time" risk-taking was not a good decision .... :-)

A reply on Conversation: Risks are important. But how do you decide which ones are worth taking and when to be more calculative.
