  As a session chair I have the privilege to write down a few comments on four
talks that were delivered under the general title of "outflows and jets I".
This and the session that followed it, grouped work on circumstellar
environments of, post-AGB stars, proto-PNe and PNe. After summarizing some of
the highlights, I pose the question of which observations, if any,reveal the
presence of a common envelope ejection in the past of a PN. Finally, I point
out that the finding that most or all PNe have a binary origin, while solving
some of our problems, might be in contrast with the number of known close main
sequence binaries.
