"His biggest barrier is getting people to support him. People who can make the changes he proposes." You are getting warmer Kimfay... but I see you just won't take that extra step... to abject pessimism. <Hoo><Hoo><Haa> Not that it matters much. When the fruit starts to rot you're going to have less fruit with each passing day. Whether you pessimistically leave it sitting on the table; or optimistically move it to the refrigerator... either way you'll be experiencing a fruit shortage soon enough. But heck! If you've got a refrigerator... why not use it, right?! I suppose "optimism" is much the same. Why should it go to waste? Everybody can't be a pessimist. I mean sheesh... we'd of been extinct in about 2 weeks without some counterbalancing optimism some place in the gene pool! Still... Patch and NCANS strike me as a little too superficial. Like Mr. Dvdw keeps saying... there's definitely a "systemic" problem at work here. Unfortunately I don't know enough about what he means by that... but from where I sit the problem is much deeper than "getting people to make changes" as NCANS or anyone else might suggest. If there were a "solution"... and I'm not saying there is... I would look for the inverse, i.e., something that could "change people" rather than any changes people can make. For instance, if it were up to me... I'd change people into some kind of creature capable of first knowing their own jobs and then remaining focused on doing those jobs... rather than generally seeking to acquire, control or do as many jobs as possible. Perhaps something like plump little field mice... maybe moles... voles?.. certainly a few female Owls... but not too many. <Hoo><Hoo><Hoo?> But that's just me. Someone else might prefer Vulcans... no doubt a few would choose Tholians... others beagles. There's not likely to be a consensus... Which is probably why I would turn you all into mice if I had the chance... and you all keep turning my precious trees into whiskey barrels. <Hoo><ack><Hoo><pHooie> 0\|0
