Been reading Jared Diamond -- Collapse, How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed. I realized something -- as a society "col- lapses", many people become Afraid, and Fear Makes People Stu- pid. So there's actually a failure-promoting tendency as the descent progresses! :-) -K
This failure promoting tendency probably increases the rate of descent as well. Imagine collapse of empire at internet speed. ;) _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://wwia.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuel archives at Infoarchive.net (searchable): http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/
