Ron, Thanks for your reply. You are certainly right about "The Mask of Cybernet", how it sometimes changes psychology of a person. However, I am not sure of myself if I met Paul or Elmer on a golf field. Mask is a mask, but there are limits. I also believe that the cybernet can be aligned with traditional human interactions, by simple technical means. One can implement a model of parliament debates, where no one speaks one-liners whenever he/she feels an urge, but rather waits for a microphone to communicate a carefully-prepared statement, or a line of reasoning. Or something like that. About "War vs. Diplomacy", I am not totally positive that this concept stays under conditions of explosive population and natural resource limits. Regards, - "Ali Chen Mask"
