The money makers in today’s world are among the most respected and admired. The vast majority of humanity thinks there is nothing wrong with just making money since they are completely unaware of the difference between just making money and creating life support. Of course the difference is that making money is making neutral wealth, but it is not creating synergic wealth. Those just making money are often the “winners” in the neutral-adversary reality of our modern world. But the price humanity pays for this minority to win is the necessity for the majority of living humans to lose. Those who just make money still need life support. They get it by trading their Neutral wealth–money for Synergic wealth–life support. If as Fuller tells us 90% of Americans are just making money then only 10% of Americans are creating life support. No wonder the majority of humans are losing. (03/09/02)

… are condemned to repeat it.” This quotation credited to George Santayana contains an important truth for those humans seeking survival in 2002. Today we modern humans are mostly ignorant of our Past. We are so Present-focused and Future-infatuated, that we honestly don’t believe the Past matters. The Past does matter, and what we don’t know can certainly hurt us. If we are to repair our Present and build a Positive Future, we must learn from the Past. A Positive Future will be very different from our world today. And we may miss our opportunity to make these changes if we don’t understand the how and the why of our human Present.  (03/09/02)
