Hi,
Definitely agree and I'll add that the beginning of civilization is yet to arrive. When we use the sharpest minds and brightest people to kill people and rap the planet we do it extremely well. Now to me using those people and those minds to solve the problem of bills, my friend, this can be done. Where is the energy and will, but on the beginning items. Well there is great news we don't have to convince everyone just the ones that want and support the extinction of war, poverty, unnecessary human suffering and environmental degradation and are open to use the methods of science to enhance live and can understand that behavior is shaped by the environment and when we use the current science and technology to make an access abundance for all we may never look at our times with any nostalgia. Remember TheVenusProject.com and it's ideas are not how the world will be but what it can be and future generations will improve upon it. This may or may not happen. We are more likely headed to our own extinction, but it's what we do today that will effect tomorrow.
