Thanks for forwarding Ian's post. I can see much more clearly where you are
coming from now. The vision he describes is what I see as a viewpoint into
something we might call the vortex of transformation. Many people would be
horrified by much of what he says, but I feel that there are other factors
involved that would make it a very enjoyable future -- that is once we
finally get out of the birth canal.
Ah yes, we are back to the old bootstrap problems which is why I didn't
catch your drift earlier. Seems like the big questions are what we
should do or not to to bring it about, and how much patience we need
to have while going about this?
