Re: [Fwd: [atlarge-discuss] WHAT MOST MEMBERS WANT]

This ain't coming from no prophet - just an ordinary man.
One of my teachers and mentors from afar wrote;
"the real problem of the third world is ignorance. Together with attachment 
and aversion, igonrance is one of the three poisons of the mind, which are 
the source of all mental suffering.  In the third world igorance is 
certainly the most serious of the three."
(oh did I mention and attribute to His Holiness the Dalai Lama)

Let us keep our eye on the ball!  In futball as in baseball as in golf we 
must hold ourselves relaxed and smack the ball.  Our goal in scoring is in 
participation and education.

Systems are not flawless and are constantly changing.  Intentions are the 
problems that I see.  Does one suggest a methodology to prove he knows more 
or to gain control of a database?  Or is one simply trying to do the most 
good for the most people? Blurred lines to be sure.

We are ready to move forward, let us just do it.
