Wes Jackson were present: "The confusion started when humans ate the Fruit
of Knowledge. Adam and Eve were thrown away from the Garden of Eden. The
only way to get back is to throw away the knowledge! Just become foolish
like a bird or baby."*

living in the future, you're anxious. If you're living in the present, you
are at peace."
