DR. MARLENE Hunter

-once joked her husband
should form a company
called Ideas Incorporated
because he always had
**7,001 ideas about
everything.”

By KIM PEMBERTON
News Reporter

After mulling it over, Hunter
and her husband decided it wasn’t
such a bad idea ~- only it wouldn't
be a business as such but an op-
portunity to create a local “think
tank.”

For a three-month trial basis,
they’ll be holding ‘‘brainstorming”’
sessions in West Vancouver on the
last Thursday of the month for
anyone who is interested.

Hunter, her husband Jones
Redner and psychologist Alana
Schroeder will act as ‘‘provokers”’
during these sessions.

“4J¢’s for people who are stuck
with any kind of project — how to
approach a term paper, should I
buy a house — and want an in-
novative way to get out of a rut.
The best ways to get ideas is to
brainstorm,”’ said Hunter.

Hunter said she would like to see
as many as 20 people taking part in
the informal 24-hour session.

Hunter said there are only two
rules for participants: anything
goes, no matter how bizarre the
suggestion and no arguing.

“Sometimes it’s not what people
say that is used, but what it trig-
gers to someone listening,’ she
said.

“Once the ideas get flowing it’s
immense fun. People come up with
creative thought they didn’t even
know they had.”’

The cost for participants is $15.

Pre-register at least one week in
advance, by calling 926-5910.
