Ryan Coleman their website was down as i had talked to them on the phone
and they told me. you seem to be angry about something. would you care to
elaborate on your attack? you seem to be against the idea of a think tank.
before the internet i used to buy a case of beer and go to a mechanics shop
and learn how to swap out engines and such. so much more work than looking
on the internet. i have no desire to be anon. i merely suggest that people,
not everyone is like you, seem to care about privacy. i appreciate your
response, but i have to say you sound like you are being a dick and almost
sound ignorant of the ideas that i have. curious, what did you do before
the internet, where you a troll then too?

I have spent several hours reading about and i can tell that there is so
much out there and in many different directions. my ideas are leading
me to some more ideas. open existence. a group similar to tclug to answer
questions from how to start a fire with 2 sticks to how to put
power back into the grid. i seen a man working in his garage and i thought
there is a man who can do something by himself without relying
someone else to do it for him. what if i had a disk full of free and
openly distributable information on how to make generator (a piece of
wire and a magnet isn't difficult to understand), how to farm, how to build
a $50 underground house , etc,; basically a disk full how to not
rely on the value or the dollar, while allowing you to put electric into
the local grid, food into the local area, mesh communication using
your existing radio/cell phone.  less big bank and more community. (yeah, i
pulled out the conspiracy theory card -ryan you
going to run with this?)
a group of people who care about community and people, when the power goes
out the local generators feed into the network. when
phones are out mesh keeps communications going.
Think like a Rotarian here people. not everyone is a recluse troll type,
many people want to go out of their homes and comfort zones
and communicate with like minded people and try and improve the lives of
people (rich/poor young/old am kindergarten/ pm kindergarten)
That is what research does to me. i think in terms of people, not money or
power.

The 4-Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do:





   1.

   Is it the TRUTH?
   2.

   Is it FAIR to all concerned?
   3.

   Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
   4.

   Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

I am not against harsh answers, even though they discourage me from trying
to do good, i will play along though. i hope you (my tclug peers)
understand if i get a little rude at times when i am discouraged. my
apologies if i upset anyone. i will do my best to separate content with
paragraphs. i am putting random ideas on tclug. connect mesh with linux
here: http://project-byzantium.org/ connect tclug with community and making
the world a better place for everyone; read the threads, we do that here.
