permaculture

[Paul Kosuth <prkosuth@ll.net>]

I think that the means are available but the will to apply those means 
has been exercised. Can the will be exercised is another question. When 
the will exists to spend more than twice the federal gov amount on 
education for 6 months of invasion to make Iraq safe for Haliburton I 
think financial resources are available. There are both soft and hard 
technologies available to make the world a successful place for all 
peoples. Its not a monoloith of one technology but may technologies 
specific to area, people and culture. Maybe its a permaculture of 
industries and appropriate agriculture, I don't know. Maybe permaculture 
should grow to include an industrial component. Check out the World Game 
Institute at http://www.osearth.com/workshops/  this whole scenario is 
based upon making the world work for everyone.
