Dr. Osterbrock has given a comprehensive summary of the Symposium. I will discuss a few topics which seemed particularly interesting to me as a non-specialist: dust, the fate of pre-planetary ejecta, and inhomogeneities. Let me begin by describing a simple model of the planetary nebula (PN) phenomenon, which is suggested by the discussions we have heard at this Symposium, and which provides the framework for my other comments.
