You can see my comment? Because I can’t! I haven’t been able to see my posts for years. But clearly you responded to it, so you must be able to see it. Can anyone else see this one and the one just after Bob’s?

I’m here because I am fascinated by the way evolution/entropy works as it increases diversity/weirdness, and I am passionate about sharing this hopeful understanding of how the universe works. I don’t see as much of this positive, creative, exploratory viewpoint in our mainstream media, so I’m happy that this place at least attempts to increase…[Read more]

Turil Cronburg replied to the topic A bottom-up, emergent government, for your amusement… in the Conversation Big Ideas 10 years, 10 months ago
I just tried to post a response to this older post of mine, saying that I’d actually written a book that gently introduces folks to this kind of better-than-democracy future, created with a technology that connects all Earthlings together into a healthy living system. But my post never showed up, that I can see.
So I’m going to try something…[Read more]

I posted something about this in the Big Ideas section as well, but I see us evolving a system like the system our bodies use. Creating both a circulatory system and a neurological system to move resources, both material and information, around from where they are in excess (either where they are created or where there is just more than the local…[Read more]

I imagine that we will have at least some form of kitchen gardens in every home, where sprouts, wheatgrass, and other small plant foods would be grown, so that they could provide the primary source of protein and nutrients (all still living and at their peak of nutrition). We’d have maybe smoothies with greens and fruit for breakfast, and then a…[Read more]

We hear people say things like, “Democracy isn’t perfect, but it’s the best we’ve got.” But there is something we’ve already got that’s much better… It’s the way an animal body’s system works. This is what evolution has created for biological systems, and seems to be the way sociology is going now, as well. We’re finally mostly connected with…[Read more]
