Why take the time to methodically describe a problem? Why seek the advice of others to clarify a working solution? The answer is within the human spirit to be heard and understood. |

Life expectancy is 67.2 years in a humanity of 6.8 billion. Let's say within one's lifetime 3 problems fester for resolution. Let's then cut a little off life expectancy for maturity and degradation to come up with 51 years to express knowledge. 51 divided by 3 is 17. 17 years to describe a coherent solution to a perplexing problem. If everyone did their part 400 million coherent points of view would be described on a yearly basis. |

"What a crazy notion, you could only hope to get a fraction of the participation!" I disagree, but 1/400th still leaves 1 million points of view per year. "A fraction of the populace can produce an intelligent point of view!" I disagree again. Even if 1/2 a percent is capable, that leaves 5,000 quality solutions added to a repository of knowledge on a yearly basis. That's 13 refined expressions of intelligence from a humanity of thought to read on a daily basis. 13 intelligent opinions is the daily equivalent of the number of opinions we absorb from a media of a few thousand priviledged individuals. 6.8 billion people! 67.2 years per existence! Oh, the potential for knowledge, understanding, and humanity! |
