While I applaud U, CIMA, 4 bringing global/local village argument to fore, I disagree w/the arguments cited in it.

Y2K will abruptly bring us back to "local thinking", and in a very big hurry. How "global" we re-emerge is yet to be seen. If the depression economic cycle lesson of GLOBAL impact is to have taught USA'ers anything, we must conclude Y2K economic disruption will have a potential impact of 12-16yrs of economic rebuilding yet to be experienced, post Y2K.

However logical for the local to global to local cycle to repeat itself, to think local to global to galactic is also being explored.
I truly hope we don't colonize other planets until we understand how to get along w/diversity on this one! And get along WITHOUT the morally and economically depraved "too free willy" atop of THIS one!
