I really wanted to shadow Verne Harris of the Nelson Mandela Foundation, who has written eloquently on the effects of apartheid on social memory. Unfortunately he doesn't appear to have a social… Continue

Power Evocation: Courage
I hesitate to say it's my favorite Evoke power, but it's certainly an important one: courage.
Regardless of the skills you possess, it takes courage to put them into action, as action always entails risk, large or small.

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

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.

Friend or don't friend, it's your call.
I am erring on the side of creating more connections rather than fewer at this early stage of this experience. I don't know where each connection will lead -- that's kind of the point. The largest reason I was drawn to make a connection was that we were located within an hour of one another geographically and if participation in this will lend itself to real-world action, proximity is a bonus.
It's your call.
