Speaker is inspirational
By David Emslie
CLINTON - Many students were honored
during Central Huron Secondary School's
(CHSS) fourth annual Arts Banquet, held on
May 14.
The inspirational speaker for the event,
which is held to honor students for their par-
ticipation in non -athletic activities, was Dr.
Ron Posno.
Dr. Posno has a long history in the educa-
tional system and has held such positions as
school superintendent, school principal,
teacher and university professor.
Currently he is self-employed as a
speaker and has lectured in universities
country wide, as well as in several promi-
nent American universities. He has also
recently established a management con-
sulting agency with his partner David
Bratton.
Before getting into the body of his - speech
Dr Posno noted that he was thrilled with the
concept of these particular awards. He also
asked those gathered at the banquet not to
take any side trips while he was speaking as
he realizes the human mind can process
anything he says four to six times faster
than he can say it.
The title of his speech was "You, Incor-
porated", and he explained he wanted to
deal with the concept of the students and
their choices.
"I believe most strongly that education
deals with two issues; trying to procide you
with knowledge, and tring to develop a
means to develop wisdom and make good
choices," he said.
In quoting the saying, "Destiny is not a
matter of chance, destiny is a matter of
choice," Dr. Posno said that many people
confuse the two, and thin the choices that
come in life come from chance.
He acknowledged- that there are certain
element of luck in life, but pointed out,
"what we do know is the brain power you
are given is luck, but how you use it, control
it, is not chance. People go through life wait -
ng for chance, not going after choices."
Dr. Posno told the students that they have
to learn to co-operate their choices in life
and manage them.
On the subject of choice and chance he
said there are three different types of people
he meets in his life.
"Creators are the kind of people who
develop choices, look for choices and look
for opportunities. On the opposite end are
reactors. They look at life today and react to
it. In the middle are another bunch, folks
that are zeroes, the mudwamos. They are

straddling the fence and not knowing what
to do," he explained.
The fact that some people think change is
a bad thing was also pointed out by Dr.
Posno. "We can't stop change, change is the
only constant we can expect," he said, ad-
ding that statistics show that most people to-
day experience six major career changes in
their lives.
As well as being afraid of change, many
people are also afraid of technology, he said.
"As far as I understand it, it's going to be
very difficult to be in the creative aspects of
life without technology today," he noted.
Dr. Posno explained to those gathered
that if he were to incorporate a company, he
would first analyze its worth. He said the
students should think about their worth, and
how they can sell themselves in the market.
"You're going to go through a lot of self-
assessment."
"I'm talking tonight to creators, obviously
leaders. You have the opportunities, choices
and motivation, that's why they're giving
out awards," he said.
In finishing his speech Dr. Posno left the
students with the words of Bernard Shaw
who stated, "Some see the world as it is and
wonder why, I see the world as it may be,
and ask why not."
"Why not, ladies and gentlemen, it's your
world, go for it," he .concluded.
The awards were given out following Dr.
Posno's presentation. Winning minor

Do we really want, or need, Capital Punishment?
The Truth is. any one can be sentenced to die, as Steven was, for a crime not committed.
'The Silent Courtroom', a new book, demonstrates a frightening silent flaw in our
judicial system that contributed to Truscott's travesty of justice.
The book also contains revealing crime pictures along with the story of a Carpenter
who, after spending $30,000 worth of time and money 'correctly' solved the crime.
The Jolting truth is that a man and his wife not only witnessed the abduction of the girl,
but also spoke to the abductors They then turned their backs on the helpless 12 year old and
fled from the area Also another man came along a few moments later, witnessed the murder
rape taking place, and then he loo fled. These three adults then stayed mute even through 14
year old Truscott was sentenced to hang Obviously, the fear for their own lives, if they
came forward, was real and intense
There is a money back guarantee that 'The Silent Courtroom'. with Lynne Harper's
death message lefl•in Lawson's Bush where her ravished body was found, will irrevocably
prove Steven Truscott innocent, point at them who committed the murder -rape, expose
an appalling plot and result in an exoneration
GUARANTEED! ... MAKE YOU HAPPY?
Various authorities did not respond to compelling facts laid in front of them, indicating
public pressure is needed Are you game,
