  Industrial people view time as a continuity with a past and
  future component.  The dead are considered gone and the
  present is merged with the future.  Plans and schedules
  are used to build this future.
  
  Time is viewed a cycle by many native peoples.  The past is
  part of the present and nature provides the ruler to tell
  if time is passing.  The dead are never gone.

  Given the industrial view of time one would expect a fear
  of death, high interest in manipulating the world (future),
  and a belief in growth and goals beyond the limits of 
  nature.  People would think they are going somewhere and
  need to make a statement or become famous.

  Where are people going?
