 Interesting points raised by Mr. Eusepi.

 I have another question which no one appears to have raised.

Hi Brian,

Why not give John Pozzi a rest and work a little harder 
on your own project:

The REED Program
Environmentally Clean Communities

I have tried several times lately to access your site, and as 
soon as I move off the welcome page my computer locks 
up and I have to shut off the power.  That is an improper 
shut down, with risk to data on my hard drive, which 
requires a disk check before I get my computer back 
in operation.  So far, I have been lucky.

Also, I received three copies of your subject lengthy message 
to <grb@yahoogroups.com>, which I cannot explain.  Likewise, 
three copies of a message on the same subject from 
moonphase9@yahoo.com (Keitan), which was well said.

I have for several years admired John Pozzi, John C. Turmel, 
and Norman G. Kurland for the global vision they have 
incorporated in their respective solutions for a sustainable, 
poverty free, and peaceful global economy.  And I notice that 
each of these three innovators have been getting an undue 
amount of critical mail recently.  Such criticism is not helpful.  
The passage of time will correct any existing omissions in their 
visions, provided they are diligent in their pursuit of their vision.  

I have been a guest on each of their several mail lists for a few
years, for which I am very much obliged.  If, in a thoughtless 
moment, any of my posts have disparaged the efforts of my 
hosts, I sincerely apologize to them for those unintentional 
transgressions.  

The topic of my posts is not in competition with any of the 
three visions mentioned above, nor is it in competition with 
a Basic Income (BI) as proposed by BIEN at URL  
http://www.etes.ucl.ac.be/BIEN/bien.html, 
nor is it in competition with a Citizen's Income (CI) as 
proposed by the British Social Policy Association at URL 
http://citiinco01.uuhost.uk.uu.net/discussion/index.shtml, 
nor is it in competition with your REED Program.

To the contrary, the topic of my posts is the historical systemic 
defect of omission in the public policy of the English speaking 
nations which makes the normal development, and 
convergence to a common solution, of the above global 
visions so difficult.  That is, a defect of omission which 
makes every reform effort so much like trying to make 
water run up hill by pushing on a rope.  These three, or 
five, or six visions are to be implemented in the future.  
My topic addresses what we have done, or left undone, 
in the past which has brought us to our present condition.

Thanks again for your contribution, Brian.  Let me know when 
I can visit your web site safely.

Kind regards to all,
