I've not much really to add to this post other than that I've often
thought the same thing. I'd be interested to hear if anyone's got any
convincing arguments why it can't happen. I realise it would take a
long time, and it must be a difficult option, but has anyone spotted
an easy one yet? My main thinking is though, that it could only work
based on equality. The problem with the equality goal is, even if
everyone's agreed on the destination, there's a fair amount of
argument over the map, let alone the route.
Cheers,
Adam
