		<description><![CDATA[Arnold, thanks kindly for amplifying my original post and riffing on it. You did a far better job of it than I did in neatly putting your finger on the problem with Erickson&#039;s argument for certification - as you said, &quot;It’s a mediator-driven argument not a client-centred approach.&quot; 

Perhaps we need an ADR equivalent of Dan Hull&#039;s blog, &quot;What About Clients?&quot; to remind us all that it&#039;s the client who stands at the heart of our work -- not our own professional self-interest. Not that there&#039;s anything wrong with making a living - but please let&#039;s not do it at the expense of those we should care about most.]]></description>
