Hi Bill - Re: 'Tom Paine's pamphleteer publication of "Common Sense" caused the American Revolution, IMO. Now that was REALLY "Bottom up!"' Exactly. Now you're getting it! Same with Hitler's "Mein Kampf" and Mao's "Little Red Book". 'The time it takes to transmit ideas has constantly shortened. What we have witnessed in the last ten years about idea transmission is almost unbelievable.' My grandfather said the same thing about a satellite, as we watched it transit the sky on a summer night. Like many of his generation, he was astounded at man's "progress". The satellite was a Keyhole, one of the first. Technology ... "Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose." No big change in human affairs. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along. Jim
