Keith, I for one will put in my 2 cents and say quite honestly that I wouldn't be glued to my computer reading email updates of this list if it weren't for the political discussion. I live in the South Dakota, USA. Most people here are Red state type of people who don't want change as long as there is a conservative in office pretending he/she cares. I love that we can all speak freely, and I especially love that I can read what people from around the world think, especially about America...I agree with most of them. I am also thankful that you post so many articles, I would not be exposed to this information otherwise. This list has changed my world view for the better. Thank you for your hard work, and thank you to all the contributers. Thanks so much for taking the time to say so, it's much appreciated, and you're most welcome.

Hallo Keith, Friends, Thursday, 07 July, 2005, 17:19:26, you wrote: ...snip... You will notice that Keith, for instance, seems to offer solutions. KA ... thanks for saying so! Though not always, I can be negative too KA where necessary, but I do try to point to alternatives. More than KA that I'd say I'm trying to provide useful information. This forum and KA these issues are all about empowerment, IMHO, but there's hundreds of KA billions spent every year on PR, advertising and all the other forms KA of message massage to try to prevent exactly that, empowerment. And KA perhaps especially around anything to do with fossil-fuels. Lots of KA blind alleys, much confusion and frustration, and here in the KA Information Age most of the information is just noise and smoke to KA keep you baffled. Good information helps, it's empowering. ...snip... I have only been reading sporadically as I am not yet fully shipshape and Bristol fashion but there is a place for people who recognize the problems and point them out without solutions as long as they are just doing that, pointing the problems out, recognizing them, but not attacking randomly. Sometimes we have a difficult time even recognizing the real root cause of something and we go for treating symptoms rather than curing the disease. It is a matter of how and why it is done, of whether it is to help as one is able or to attack, criticize and defend a partisan position. Makes a world of difference. It's sort of like automobile electrics. It may help to change the bad bulb repeatedly but the problem won't be fixed until you find the short and repair that and then replace the bulb. Happy Happy, Gustl -- Je mehr wir haben, desto mehr fordert Gott von uns. We can't change the winds but we can adjust our sails. The safest road to Hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. C. S.
