It would also seem that we delight in discovering unusual differences between ourselves and others, or our group and other groups. and The computer control, contains all operating controls with their associated system. displays for the entire However, a component of the computer control, the amplifier circuit board, was coded reparable, except in cases of leaky capacitors. In these cases, the Technical Order stated that "circuit cards so contaminated by electrolyte should be replaced." -7 FOR INSTANCE we are generally intrigued by the differences between one religion an another or the differences between one tribe and another. As we discover the diversity that exists between ourselves and others, we are changed. The degree of change is less if the in- formation has been received via communication media, than if it has been received via personal encounter. The awareness of our differences does not necessarily result in an increased openness or sensitivity toward one another. It can result in a solidification of attitudes and a more closed-min- d attitude. Trust is necessary if we are to reach any meaningful level of openness toward each other. APPROXIMATELY 88 per cent of the amplifier circuit boards were being repaired; however, the leaky ones that could not be replaced were being disposed of and new ones purchased at a cost of $662. each. This amounted to a of $737,468 and was yearly expenditure during FY-7- 5 at thereafter. $983,070 projected with the An Enhancement Team, in conjunction from and Lab assistance shop personnel and Chemistry a W. Burns, developed cleaning method to efJoseph and neutralize remove electrolyte contaminates fectively at a labor and material cost of $29 each. ONE OF the differences between people is the way they value the things in their environment. These differences THROUGH their aggressive and professional effort, a technique of utilizing the new cleaning method was perfected and the percentage of "saves" went from 88 to 98 per cent. Yearly savings to the Air Force was $690,544 in and projected at $921,015 thereafter. ifirw v(i(yj3 offer all sorts of possibilities. . For instance, a cow may be only a source of milk to a man in whose culture the killing of animals if forbidden. However another man in another culture may only be able to eat the meat of the cow and not drink its milk. The cow has a different value for these two men. Should they learn of their different value, each will think the other's strange. For each person tends to think of his own values as truer and better than the other man's.

However if the two men should encounter one another in a situation in which they must share the cow, then the situation is no longer merely informational. At this point feelings attached to their different attitudes will emerge. I hope at this point to have posed a problem for you, and given you an illustration with which to work. How are these two men going to resolve their situation? This is currently a serious problem facing our society : the resolution of conflicting values. values.
