: : Just wondered if you had seen this. It might not be up your alley, but I was reminded of this by your posts. Anyway, I have enjoyed this string immensely.
: : Thanks, Bill
: I did. I was telling people about it at work yesterday. That is the perfect example of people based government and sustainable economics as opposed to the propagandized, special-interest, sedate-through-wealth culture we have here. I was so changed by the realization that life outside the US did contain civilization as we knew it, and that life outside the US/THEM national framework was a beautiful thing. People can create effective government, and healthy society, it just sickens me when people try to defend this society as the best of all possible worlds.
Good! I'm glad you liked it. Hope more people start sharing ideas like those you and Jonvon were discussing and those Bill McKibben usually likes to share.
