I am honoured that readers are engaging in this dialogue here.<br /><br />Thank you for adding more ideas. We have to take this discussion out to the larger community - to our elected representatives, family, friends and neighbours. I think dust is here to stay, though!<br /><br />One problem I have with a lot of TV/movie science fiction is that it is so conflict-based. Travel to far flung reaches of the universe, meet interesting alien life, and kill them. <br /><br />Surely the universe can not be populated by life as screwed up as us? G.R. definitely had a better imagination, and played with more enlightened ideas. We need more big thinkers like him.Gregg Koephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09349453216733070775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4312736954468978064.post-78090074385393561992012-07-24T21:11:53.589-03:002012-07-24T21:11:53.589-03:00If we reach a critical mass things could change ra...If we reach a critical mass things could change rapidly.

I would like to see knowledge more valued than a Lexus, good food more valued than jewelry, gardens more valued than wide screen TVs....and I would like the elimination of dust so I wouldn't have to clean so much. :)Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328674280714013955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4312736954468978064.post-45277733359352322062012-07-23T21:12:29.461-03:002012-07-23T21:12:29.461-03:00Seems you've got it covered.

We need to publicize it so the general public is aware & can make informed decisions when they vote. <br /><br />People who use tax havens to stash their money should be required to live there, not in their country of origin because they are not contributing to the country. That includes Mitt Romney & his fellow travellers.e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4312736954468978064.post-2592794456750386772012-07-23T05:46:34.588-03:002012-07-23T05:46:34.588-03:00If you stand for parliment I am voting for you.
