Good end of the year plan. Now the history thing is the critical point. I spent 2 years in Iran and they keep looking to the rear mirror and seeing the glory that the country was. I look to Brazil and in 500 years they build a new civilization out a jungle using Mediterranean whites, a lot of black Africans and other nationalities. If In 3.000 years hence we would be like Iran is today I would think it would be a total fiasco. History is good, And I am a fan of History but as a guide for us to and analyze all the experiments done to get to what we are today. But it means very little for Romans, Greek and Iranians the glory their ancestors lived. I went to that historic site south of Huangzhou and as we rowed through the channels I saw that China did not have a Industrial Revolution. All stone and wood. They did not needed one as Europe had. China has always had a big population: No religious wars. No Black Death. And the agriculture [products were introduced and kept the population not be limited by famine. In fact the diaspora is result of the better nourishment after ground nuts and other cultures were introduced and population skyrocketed. Keep history in mind is bad,. Very bad. The guys keep thinking they are destined to something the others are not. Like Jews thinking they are the chosen people and other ideas people tend to carry with them.
