I say, we've got a lot to learn from the Scandinavians.

The Great Ed Dolan is of Irish ancestry and it is ever His delight to kick
Scandinavian ass. Plenty of dumb Swedes here in Minnesota! I think Marika is
Congolese, not nearly White enough for a Scandinavian, not even for a dumb
Swede. However, Tom Sherman of ARBR is of Danish origin. He might suit her.
He is unmarried and rich as all get out. He would be a good catch for a
Congolese maiden lady, but only if she is not a harlot. Tom, like me, will
have nothing to do with harlots.

Debating with Marika is child's play for me. It is like shooting fish

have any fun.

I can suggest ways to enliven your dreary existence - why not enjoy a
game of Russian roulette solitaire, or relax with a nice glass of
Liquid Drano?

Anyways, Switzerland --where you live-- has approved a sick approach
to drug addiction where heroin has been approved for addicts.

If you think about it the average Western consumer should be put on
addiction programs for OIL ADDICTION. Yeah, all that oil is feeding
injustice and terrorism in the world.

From the revolutionary program below:

While the prohibition of drugs has been largely ineffective and costly
(in money, prison overpopulation, crime), regulated legalization --
like that of Holland-- can be a better solution to both addiction and
crime.

Obviously you have no consideration for poor Marika. If I don't humor her,
who will?

the newsgroups some.

know that you are supposed to be "humoring" but what does this all
mean?-Besdies that it is supposed to be funny?

"Humoring" means to string you along for the dolt that I know you are. I do
it because of the sense of noblesse oblige which I feel toward my inferiors
such as you.

Have you seen No Country for Old Men?

I'm pretty sure you must have--but if not-please do

I have seen it. What point to you want to make in connection with it? But I
must warn you, I thought it was the worst movie ever made. Mindless violence
is mindless. What else is there to be said about it?

To know human society... poke with a stick at an ant colony

I often think of myself as a monkey poking a stick at an ant colony to
observe its behavior. Well, there's a science that comes from that
observation, which can answer fundamental questions about humanity...

"We can not know where we are going unless we know where we came from"
-E.O. Wilson

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...oryId=97547749

"Wilson came to believe that humans, like ants, are genetically
designed to live within natural limits. It is becoming increasingly
obvious that those limits are directly related to reduced energy use
and consumption of natural resources, family planning, and cooperation
among societies, rather than competition."

But I think big Ed is more interested in roaches than ants...

The stick is meant to cause some kind of reaction. When observing
roaches though I change the stick for the shoe.

Roaches show me that they operate in the dark and that they like to
eat anything. And they are more individualistic than cooperative ants.
Perhaps ants show leftist tendencies while roaches show Republican
leanings.

You have a point there, particularly if we talk about the Curitiba
model for American cities...

Curitiba's Bus System is Model for Rapid Transit
By Joseph Goodman, Melissa Laube, and Judith Schwenk

Bus systems provide a versatile form of public transportation with the
flexibility to serve a variety of access needs and unlimited range of
locations throughout a metropolitan area. Buses also travel on urban
roadways, so infrastructure investments can be substantially lower
than the capital costs required for rail systems. As a result, bus
service can be implemented cost-effectively on many routes. Yet,
despite the inherent advantages of a bus service, conventional urban
buses inching their way through congested streets don’t win much
political support. The essence of a Bus Rapid Transit is to improve
bus operating speed and reliability on arterial streets by reducing or
eliminating the various types of delay.

The bus system of Curitiba, Brazil, exemplifies a model Bus Rapid
Transit (BRT) system, and plays a large part in making this a livable
city. The buses run frequently—some as often as every 90 seconds—and
reliably, and the stations are convenient, well-designed, comfortable,
and attractive. Consequently, Curitiba has one of the most heavily
used, yet low-cost, transit systems in the world. It offers many of
the features of a subway system—vehicle movements unimpeded by traffic
signals and congestion, fare collection prior to boarding, quick
passenger loading and unloading—but it is above ground and visible.
Around 70 percent of Curitiba’s commuters use the BRT to travel to
work, resulting in congestion-free streets and pollution-free air for
the 2.2 million inhabitants of greater Curitiba.

You know what, I'm going to make a wish list, such as I'd make for
Santa, just that this is a to-do list for the revolution. I say "the
revolution" because I don't think these things can get accomplished by
regular politicians...

1- low crime by decriminalizing drugs

2- good public transportation

3- traffic safety

4- BIKE FACILITIES

5- littering control

6- low cost, high quality healthcare, based on prevention

7- fast trains

8- no more gated communities

9- noise pollution control

10- eradication of homelessness
