<< There are lots of wonderful solutions as you mentioned but how do we get around the connections to 'System'? > >> Dear Richard, If I may butt in, let's assume its impossible to do entirely at this time, that we can only disconnect ourselves one step at a time, by becoming more self-reliant, self-sustainable, and autonomous both individually and as communities, using low-tech means wherever we can. Obviously, the less we have to rely on outside sources and "the system", the more unattached we will become, the more self-reliant, the less we will need money, eventually developing into a network of self-reliant communities where money is not an ingredient. Eventually, making the whole world this way. What do you think? Letting the more enlightened lead the way, be the models, and allowing the hundredth monkey thing to happen. Tom O www.bagelhole.org
