Post #240,065 by boxley 1/1/06 11:30:24 PM Reply	that is now, people dont change chinese warlordism over centuries was only held back by Mao for 65 years, the wild west has been replaced by the wild inner cities where Korean cowboys eke livings in fear of Indian attacks. The rural ag sharecropping folks have been replaced by the rural agribiz that pays the same as the landlord tenants. Technology changes, delivery systems change, people do not. The bright side is that the Tao is just as valid today as it was to confucious. The earth is a coffin surrounded by blue skies, whether I get a annual bonus or my car gets good milage or I dont need a blue genie to get erect doesnt matter. What does matter has nothing to do with goods or services. thanx, bill Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free american and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 50 years. meep
Post #240,161 by Ashton 1/2/06 7:38:24 PM Reply	No, that is not 'people' That: is what masses of people 'look like' -- wandering around, just with jelloware full of the stuff inculcated into them as tykes -- and never having an original thought, since. (Today the tendency is intensified, because their techno culture permits a sort of 'living' - without the necessity for thinking. Which may be a reason, but not an excuse.) Whether or not so common an affliction is curable/large-scale - is an ongoing psych (and psyche) question, not a species characteristic. (If you can't tell ingrained habit from immanence, perhaps you shouldn't be training-up replacements? ;-)
