As any brain researcher will tell you, the best work done by scientists/researchers is before they reach the age of 30. So I have a distinct advantage :)) There was an ad-campaign on Indian TV called "the power of one". It had various people like The Mahatma, Mother Theresa, MLK Jr. who have single handedly increased awareness and brought about change that impacted millions of lives. Rudy Giuliani might fit into that category also. However these personalities are a rare combination of will power AND ability. I am completely incapable of any such actions. I believe in the power of the masses, and would rather work towards empowering them through education or support of causes that seek to do so. I don't think I'll be plagiarising any of your ideas in college papers unless you can provide me with some brilliantly analytical insights into telecommunications :)) Regards Sunith Velho Selma writes: First I applaud you because as young as you are, you've certainly held your own in this argument, that too being up against a Dotor, a formidable Roland and lovable me :)) While education and information are at the core of change, I would like to cite Rudy Giuliani as an example of how change can occur through sheer will power. Sometimes, we need to be propelled by need and winged by desire to bring about change. (Now don't you go plagiarising my quote for one of your term papers, this is an original. Good luck in London :)) ___ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
