Adam snake
30,000 years humans didn't just wake up and start acting different.
Homo sapiens didn't spontaneously start drawing on cave walls and
leaving artifacts for archaelogists to find.
Something happened.
Why doesn't our calendar start from then? Why does it start 28,000 years
too late?
Imagination, thought, dream, story - changed nothing until that point.
Why don't we have a history of our genealogy family by family?
Because Cain killed Abel, and it all went wrong after that?

Family
30,000 years of family
Look at what happened in your family's history
Go back generations
Look at how their civilisations failed and succeeded
In a way children 5 to 8 can understand

Don't you know yet
That all it takes from you
Is a few sweet words
To calm and relax me?
I know you know it
I know it
But when you're angry
Its hard for me too

Re: Worthy political platforms updated
Just as fiscal budgets must be balanced so too must environmental ones.
Like the doomsday atomic clock, a scorecard is needed for each region to
measure its sustainability.

Worthy political platforms
community service for all immigrants, high school grads and seniors
2. Repair and rebuild the environment - through research and design,
implementation, review, cultivation and harvest for the next thousand
generations
3. Repair and rebuild the economy by restoring an equitable balance to
the labour / capital relationship through duties and tariffs on
inequitably produced goods and services, punishing those companies that
abuse labour and the environment, and rewarding those that heal them
4. Repair and the rebuild the family through the delayed mortgage -
allowing parents to be with their young children and responsible for
early childhood education, and paying the mortgage once kids are in
school

Why the american embassy in baghdad is visible from space
Human ambition has been straightforward for thousands of years.
Monument building is a basic human activity.
As civilisations grow wealthier, the leaders build large monuments.
The large monuments are to demonstrate the leaders power, to himself
(they are men), to his people, and to his enemies.
And like fruit on tree, the way to make a civilisation produce large and
beautiful monuments, is to put it under immense stress and pressure.
Resource shortages, threat of invasion seem to create these monuments as
if the civilisations knew they were about to die.
Unfortunately, the largest monuments are the last monuments a
civilisation builds before collapsing.
Its as if the king is a condemned prisoner and says, since I am going to
die anyway, I don't have to worry about the future, so I will use all my
resources to realize my dream - which is to build the biggest monument
the world has ever seens.
What are some of these monuments?
The great wall of china
The heads of rapa nui
The pyramids of meso america
The pyramids of egypt
The castles of europe
The stone circles in england and brittany
The giant buddhas of asia
The american embassy in baghdad

@@@@@@@@@@@email chopping
In filemaker, or ruby, or python, or php, or revolution, or lua, or what
have you
Make a mailbox
Configure mail accounts for google, hotmail, yahoo, imap, pop3
(There's an italian ".it" lua app that proxies webmail to pop3 or imap
on the mac to localhost)
Write a love letter email counting the ways you love them and address it
to your sweetheart
The email is then split into "N - 1" columns where N is the number mail
accounts configured
The last column is used to store the raid-5 algorithm derived content
such that if one email service fails the email can be recreated
Example
Dear sweetheart,
You are my ray of sunshine,
You are my shining moon,
You are my cloudy sky,
You are my refreshing rain,
You are the peaks of my mountains,
You are the river in my valleys,
You are the delta in my flood plains,
You are the hot vents in my deep oceans,
You are the iron crystal in my molten core.
Lets imagine you had a gmail, a hotmail, an aol and a yahoo account
Let the yahoo account contain the raid 5 data - so we can ignore it
So 100% of the email has to split between the remaining 3 accounts
Lets do it line by line
Line 1 = Dear•sweetheart,¶
Character count (17) / email providers (3) = 5, 6, 6
Gmail = Dear•
Hotmail = sweeth
Aol = eart,¶
...
And so on so that the 10th and last line looks like this
Line 10 = You•are•the•iron•crystal•in•my•molten•core.¶
Character count (44) / email providers (3) = 14, 15, 15
Gmail = You•are•the•ir
Hotmail = on•crystal•in•m
Aol = y•molten•core.¶

What was effective
1. Attractive people handing out attractive toys - like tennis balls?
2. Putting people outside the show handing out toys with the booth
number on it
3. Have a booth with a theater and chairs with a big signs displaying
show times
4. Make the theater where the side walls are strings holding display
panels so you can see through it and hold brochures
5. Make the other side of theatre back wall be a line of machines for 1

What? Why? When? Where? How?
Questions!
And I demand, DEMAND, answers.
I will not be denied.
Kill me, imprison me, torture me, disappear me, mutilate me, bergen
belsen me, guantanmo me, tianmien square me, auto da fé me, inner city
school me, nanking me.
The djinni is out of the bottle.
Pandora's box is opened.
The apple has been eaten.
The fire has been stolen.
The bastille has been stormed.
I am free and I will stay free, though I am imprisoned, tortured,
brainwashed and executed.
Yeah, though I walk through the valley of death, my freedom will protect
me.
