A great bit of lingual humour via Terrence Seamon who mentions the newly minted term “Transitionist

Transition is most esentially about change and thanks to the suffix ‘-ist’ to be a transitionist is to be adept at transitions and more precisely (or is that abstractly?), skilled at managing change.

Managing and dealing with change is a skill that is thrust upon entitys regardless of their response. Change is unavoidable, whatever form the change or the object of that change may be. There are infinite things that may change. Change comes in all forms and nothing is exempt. Even the most constant forces are changing, perhaps impercepably but still they are changing.

It’s marked for deletion at Wikipedia, but get it while you can, unless you want to go via Google:-)

    I’m thinking of adding the term “transitionist” to my business card.

    kia ora, I added transitionist to the wikipedia, it’s since been deleted but I would like to reformulate the article and add it again. if you are interested in refining the concept further please feel free to contact me.

    I started using the term in 2002 when I friend and I were trying to come up with a name for snowboard camp and magazine which we never got started. He did eventually start the camp and you can find it at http://www.transitionist.com

    The original wiki article was pretty badly written however I think its worth re-evaluating and developing.

    (btw my static ip is 210.54.152.95 but i was not logged in when I created the page, hence hte first edit is to change my ip to my name)

    glad you enjoyed it.
