Douglas Adams. Arthur C. Clarke. And Dune was alright. . . well, actually, it was great. But it is still overrated, in my opinion.

The Leftis would hold a similiar political stance as modern-day Democrats. The Rights would hold a similiar political stance as mondern-day Republicans. And the Nuetrals would represent the undecided public, or even some of them would hold the 'Green party' stance. As a canidate runs their mini-campaigns (statewide or county-wide), they must state their political alliance. There stance would also be reflected by their morals and what values they advocate. As for your third question, did the above explanation suffice?

I believe that those older people saw in you what they once were. I believe that they also saw in you the innocence of youth, and they probably reflected upon better times, thinking of relatives lost, and pain felt. But they also saw that through it all, beauty would prevail. I bet that your singing represented that to them, and that was the reason they returned night after night. And I also think that they probably didn't expect anything out of you, but instead just enjoyed watching you up there. That's my opinion, any way.

Well, that was actually one of my goals. I think that rigid rule is the only true form of effective political leadership. I also believe that the people should have choice in who leads them, but they can only choose once. And then they must live with their mistakes. And it is also the primary goal of the Neutrals to moderate the extremists in the groups. That's why the primary group is that of Neutral. And I don't think the people truly know what's good for them. The majority of them, anyway. Can anyone pitch some temp. titles, I'm lacking inspiration lately.

*shivers abit* Man, that's weird. . . . EDIT: Wait wait wait. http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/asteroid_update_B_041227.html Problem solved.

Well, you may flame away at my "ignorance" or "lack of political knowledge", but I'm just tossing this idea out there. The system is untitled, for now. It would resemble something like this. - - - - - - - The governing body would consist of a group elected by the people entitled (for now) A Body. This party would would consist of 500 elected representatives. This body would have to meet the requirements of electing a certain number of canidates according to their political alliance, or opinion. These parties will be name (for now) the Rights, Lefts, and Neutrals. ( Original, isn't it? ) Body A would consist of: 150 Lefts 150 Rights 200 Neutrals The role of Body A would be to govern. Another sect ( Election ), would be assigned by the first Body A elected to watch over future nominees and approve them. It would take a majority vote of Body A (80%) to veto any canidate elected by the people. Body A would govern following an outlined constitution that must be approved by 95% of Body A, and would then pass bills and amendmants that would be lobbyed by the members of the Body. Body A would meet once every 3 months, unless an emergency meeting is called. During these meetings (which would last a maximum of 12 days) they would discuss the lobbyed bills. It would take 80% of Body A to pass a bill. Body A would also be monitored by Body B (50 nominees), whose job is to watch and make sure Body A would be following constitutional standards. In order to ammend the constitution, both Body A and B must be AGREE COMPLETELY. Members of Body B would be elected by Body A and the Internal Board. (In order to appoint an Election member, Body A and the current Election sect must agree completely) There would also be two other comitees appointed by the ENTIRETY of both Body Aand the Body B, the External Board and the Internal Board. The External Board would consist of 100 members appointed by Body A and B, and they would watch over foreign affairs, primarily foreign relations and trade. The Internal Board would deal with local governments and state governments, and inform Body A of all internal affairs. - - - - - War can only be declared if 85% of Body A approves the declaration and 90% of Body B did, as well. Before the 'voting' process, the External Board would present their case to both Bodies A and B. - - - - - More to come, maybe. Now, don't be to harsh with your criticism, but constructive criticism is welcome.

Hah. I had read something similiar to this awhile back. Very interesting, especially for modern-day-Marxists. I mean, their whole view of their "founder" (although he just brought the ideas of communism to the public's view) will change. Thanks for posting this. Intriguing article!

Guitar (acoustic and electric), and I have always wanted to play a bass cello.

Congratulations on the nice collection of explosive devices. I still would love to see a LoTR style firework put into production, I bet they would sell like hotcakes.

Well, one could deduct that the purpose of ezines was to entertain and to inform, just like printed magazines. . . And blogs, well. . . They don't really serve much purpose. I guess that you could read them to learn about other walks of life, so to speak.

Since "Hello" threads are a waste of space and very boring, I'll just jump right into the community. First, let me tell you a little bit about myself: I'm young I love science, physics and philosophy (not a science exactly, bleh) I'm a proverbial forum 'vet' So, I hope I enjoy this community! Now here's a topic : Ezines and the majority of blogs have become tiresome in my opinion.
