In spite of all your shennigans, you had your opportunity to create goodwill, peace, community and spirit with maps with the Internet Spirit. It's called capitalism, genius. Take it or leave it.

Re: The New Age of Service. <<We are transforming into a New Age of Service. This New Age will be driven by the power of THE INDIVIDUAL - not companies, governments, associations or anything that places the INDIVIDUAL in a lessor role. Many people would like to think that Gates and Balmer are the icons behind the rise in the power of the INDIVIDUAL. The problem with this argument is that heros behind this this next transformation will be those that put themselves "in service of others". For me to be part of this I have to put myself totally at the mercy of those I'm trying to help and serve. The TWO areas where I see massive growth is in the many ways that INDIVIDUALS - not companies, or DOT.COMs - will use their voice to control/tame the net and store their personal data. Behind Voice I recommend adding a good dollup of all kinds of positive, creative, empowering music. Voice and music are two forces that come from the creative power and energy residing within the INDIVIDUAL: this will become THE consolidating power that builds the trust and creates and supports the sense of "community" which was missing from the NOT.COM Wizard of Oz phase. >> Fred Seriously, do you have any idea how ridiculous this sounds to me? The net is a powerful technology but it's not going to change human nature, I'm certain. Let's not fall in love with our box of tools. After all, that's what the net is. Daniel PS << It's a fission reaction - the power of the sun - LOVE - burning through the darkness and turning us all 180% from the Old while illuminating us to a New reality of Service>> Uh...the power of the sun would be "FUSION", Fred.
