Profile Information

Do you believe we're now in a global emergency?
As a knowledge economy innovative systems provider, I see a global emergence of open-governance coupled with rapid deployment sustainable innovations and capital investment.
What does climate change mean to you?
All things come and go in their seasons. While some are planted others are harvested. Darwin illuded that any species reliant upon its habitate that cannot adapt to sudden change will become extinct.
What does peace mean to you?
If we can build a way to think in peace, we can build civilizations to live in peace.
What does community mean to you?
Sense of place established through sound economic, ecological, and equity sharing amoung the generations.
What does politics mean to you?
Politics is a means to mask the idealism of "affinity". In a type 1 civilization, governance is the execution of the will of the people and not "party" over reason.
What does money mean to you?
Money is a unit representation of value established on market means. The miracle of money is in its growth in that it demands an exponential rate of return on investment. When considering the mathematical rule of 72, which is the base formula for calculating compound interest, we find a number that resides at the core of our existance. Albert Einstein considered the rule of 72 as the most powerful rule in the universe. But he was just one person. Money is a synthetic unit of exchange but sometimes it is used as an expression of love between peoples in need.
What makes you truly happy?
Never really thought about it...
