Jon Husband on Wirearchy says:
"Short of a really serious, all-stakes-on-the-table World War (which is not an option, nor thinkable, really) ...

the only way that there will be real and substantive change to the current plutocracy's rule of both the USA and (by economic domination) the rest of the world will be through purposeful and concerted action enabled by wired-together people and information.

Any other form of real change that conceivably could happen involves collapse, I think - of the economy, or the environment. And neither of these should be the target of purposeful and concerted causative action."

Hm, you're right. The self-serving rulers of the United States might cause economic or environmental collapse or world war. And one might help them along to their ends. But that wouldn't be very sensible, as it would be very painful one way or another. So the only real alternative is that sensible well-connected people get better organized and better informed. The only alternative is that the people figure out how to be The People, instead of being ruled by a few unsuited leaders who's main asset is their own tunnel vision of power.

try this as a place to stretch the I-mage-in-Nation as one possible future senario {link:http://quanthomme.free.fr/energieencore/anglaisericjulien.htm|Something to galvanise humanity?}

You're right. Another alternative is to convincingly demonstrate principles and technologies to humanity that break through the bubble of deception. Promising ventures in that regard are the {link:http://disclosureproject.com/|Disclosure Project} and the related {link:http://www.seaspower.com/|Space Energy Access Systems}, aiming at bringing forth over-unity energy devices, and blowing the cover on why such technology has been systematically suppressed.

Sounds like a great project! I often woendr if it is best to have the accountability groups along with the feedback groups or if it works best to separate them.I look forward to hearing how it moves forward.

Dear MingDid you watch the recent teiseivlon documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle ?If you didn't I would be happy to supply you with a DVD recording of this very interesting programme in which it is suggested that the Al Gore film unfortunately got cause and effect reversed.Kind regards,John Rippon.
