As the economy goes dinghy, people will start to abandon rural areas looking for the wealth of the city. Young adults will get to role play 'urban lifestyle cog' in the machine that plays one song - duality of work and play. Everything partitions along that single wavelength strand of yin/yang, while the rest of the spectrum is insubordinated and placed into catagories that can be written off with the stroke of a pen. Key issues are not subject to question, so few potential solutions are currently available.

This country has untooled itself and has the capability of producing little in the way of substantive value. However, it does look like they have the capability of unleashing a variety of different plagues, which would inconvenience the masses and shrink the population in a hurry. Ah - but who is this they? And who are they protecting? The power brokers have infirm bloodlines. All the horrors of the world today may be the misgivings of an entrenched elite genetic pool that has made idiocy the norm. The shelf life of this 230 yr 'self'-governing constitutional experiment has expired - we may get five more years or so of use howdt of the system, but we had better get going on some new and novel systems, because most will fail until we find some that can get it right.

There seems to me to be more questions coming up today than answers coming down. This is good. Questions can be asked in such a way as to query the information and develop a sense as to whether the news is correct or faulty. All news has some basis in truth - but the reporting of the event by individuals places that person's skew into the picture. Einstein spent years developing the concept of the outside observer - we forget now that we really cannot remove the observer from the scene and still observe the event.

Thus the requirement that all things must end. In science, they have to end before we can start crunching the results, and then new information is not allowed into the sphere. The collected information should be crunched mathematically, with t-tests and error bars to allow the observers to know the accuracy range of the measurement. Then, once we have a reasonable data set that has math integrity - now we can interpret the results of the tests. Test where the scientists embeds himself in the aura of the task allow for good information, but the interpretations made on-the-fly may not be the same choices that would have been made had the controls been externalized. Also - the situation as presented in real time is the one that gets dealt with, all the real details of the facts and issues are rarely clear during the process sequence. So the fates are really not equivalent.

I guess the thing to do is to be here now and just do. There is enough data mining to do in the notebooks of the science zone that i have no doubt that education in the future will be an inprovement from education in the past. That is easy to say - education now is quite hopeless. The people can come together, but not under the current system that pits people against people in a zero sum game. We have unlimited resources, if we can learn to invest in the resource, rather than the extraction of the resource. Now off to zone.
