“Some of our most important knowledge about the world isn’t contained in books. It’s living knowledge, embedded in local practices, and passed on from one generation to the next. The elders of local communities know better than anyone else the richness and variety of their complex ecosystems. They have a deep and detailed understanding of the properties of local plants and animals, landforms, weather systems, cake recipes and knitting patterns.”
I’m going to focus my mission on that.
I send a message to the World Bank that in order to take better long term care of humanity (and consequently humanity’s banking systems) they should give knowledgeable elders around the world (and consequently all humanity) opportunity to share their important knowledge via filmed interviews, to be kept in a universally and easily accessible net archive (everything expertly made).
Like the elders interviewed in this film, WISDOMKEEPERS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dr2T1oNlLIs&feature=player_embedded
A World Bank of Wisdom?

Pet food factories at the waste end of hospitals, housing estates, old people homes, charity shops, morgues, no need for crematoriums, soup kitchens, industrialised flesh. Eat em, dead or alive. What the fuck do the old know? How to pray?
Bollocks.

Let’s patent ayahuasca and then make it illegal for Brazil to have rain forests or people to have pineal glands.

If you’re going to help yourself to the aged, you at least need a good song.

Context is everything! So: Your main concern reacting to a targeted parody of a website/game that hideously trivialises several centuries of tooth-and-nail feminist and postcolonial political struggle is to defend in knee-jerk “Come over here and say that!” fashion a particular American cultural form (beneficiary of previously mentioned struggles in the same sense that G-Sax benefited from Greece – think about it) rather than adding anything substantive to the discussion.

You also seem to be someone from the Bay Area who implies they psychically know people’s race and their extended opinions on multinational corporations from brief forum postings. Further, you seem to have opinions on how people in the third world should govern their water and that any grievances they may have are somehow constitutively anti-progress – almost as if technocratic hand-waving has never been used as political leverage. Excuse me for giving you the benefit of the doubt as being a class warrior (or a forum psychic! OOOOH!), as opposed to a routine trollish cretin. Won’t make that mistake again.

You just called people you don’t even know prostitutes.

I’m done here.

You are parodies of yourselves now.

Congratulations.

Damn, this has been a good day.

Thanks all!

Omg, you’re SOO WRONG Christian. Cuz only BOYZ like pornography. All girls hate it. And we all know that Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Aren’t you a good little Republican! Next you can ban the gays from getting married!

Though you’ve got me on the Suicide Girls. They do suck. Damnit, another win for the class warriors! At this rate you’ll have all the class warrior internet points and I’ll have none.
