Is it disturbing that fragile world peace vibe you guys are cranking out in the 
cornfields?  As much as one kid taking a bong hit?  It makes me wonder if your 
good vibes are really gunna reach that 1950's looking kid dictator in North 
Korea if you don't have the dharana chops to focus on what works for you here 
and ignore the rest. 

I always thought peace started with the individual, but now I see that it takes 
a village to maintain a mood...I mean peace.
