Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

Who hasn't had a thought about someone and then suddenly received a phone call from that person? I don't think that anyone has the ability to read minds at least not yet, and maybe we just remember the unique times and forget the 200 other times that nothing happened.

as a sort of experiment, post a brief story of when you thought you have been psychic

Well, it wasn't really psychic, but yesterday I saw a handmade windmill as the Mini-Maker's Faire at the Cambridge Science Festival and thought of you. And then a little later I saw Amos. :-)

ahah thanks guys. Turil I didn't know you were in my area.

On a different note, what do you all think of the nature of man, can it change, will it change.
I just saw "Fog of War" a doc**entary about Robert Strange Mcnamara the secretary of defense from the cold war to Vietnam. Also worked for the World Bank in the 80s. Really interesting guy. He said at the end of the interview, that you can't change the nature of man. I'm wrestling with that idea. I want to believe that we can, but the evidence against is so strong.

thoughts?

Everything changes. That's what time does to things. :-) Whether we can intentionally change it independent of the universe, or if it changes only according to the laws of the universe, that's the question we may never answer...

Perhaps it is less possible to change the nature of man in the present, than to change man's relationship to his own nature. Once born, we cannot alter our dna matrix--but we can alter our perceptions, our processing, our utilization of knowledge and experience. And, having altered the input protocols, perhaps we will have altered our selectivity, our choices, our actions. Eugenics and planning, the ongoing evolution of the world around us--I think the nature of man can be actively influenced in the present, and proactively influenced for a holistically improved future. Including the normalization of senses and talents only seen "through a glass, darkly" now.
thank you for this post.

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
