Thankyou Gracious Now....
For this which has been wrought...

Let us keep it whole....
And let us too....
Remember to be thankful....
To thee and thy all,
For all the blessings widst are given.

Wow.....
Wow.....
Wow.....
I'm just watching the Woodstock DVD....
Amazing....
How Real....
How Impressive....
This is the real mckoy....
It has Alvin Lee of Ten Years ....
startin with some smokin lead and such
Playin at night....
Ah the memories ....
It brings back the beads and insense
and the times of dye tied Indian shirts
It certainly stands out to a testament
of something not sure what
Wow and then when Santana preforms
amazing....
the groove the beat
and who is that drummer
what chops....
and Country Joe too....
No wonder they called it the Summer of Love
They even have shots of the US Army choppers
flying in Medi vac troops to supply first aid

well just thought I share it...
watch it if you can

RETHINKING CITIES

Well all hail the Kyoto Protocol, on this its day of birth.
It'd be your February 16, 2005 and with much foot dragging it seems
the Protocol is now Law and in effect.

It is interesting that its basis is on a somewhat economic model, which is understandable in a capitalistic society and world. Credits to pollute are the order of the day and bought and sold as simply another commodity on the global markets perhaps.

Al-righty then but wait.... We have missed the boat somehow I think.
I think Global warming and CO2 emissions are not the problem but a symptom.
The real problem would seem to stem from the urban jungles and cities.
Cities which by design are unsustainable and serve not people but .... whatever.

Hmmmm really??? What is a city then??? Who does it serve and how many?
Can a city be to big? Can a city be self sufficient? Can a city please all of the people all of the time? Is the city a natural or organic entity or is it a machine or
processor of some sort? What do we really know about cities anyway?
They don't seem to have been around all that terribly long and is there perhaps need to investigate what makes a good and sustainable urban area and what do we base this judgment or reasoning on? Is city designing and building a science or an art? What is the history of the city? What makes a good, sustainable healthy and green city?

A lot of questions true but the questions have to be asked I suppose if we are to do more than just treat the symptom rather than address the real problem.  More >
