“… some have become experts at one thing and others have become experts at other things. Now we need people who have become experts at composing an overall view. People who have at least some knowledge of many subjects which are required for the efficient (energy efficient) operation of a social mechanism. This type of knowledge has not been rewarded by the monetary manipulators of present or past ages, and therefore, has not been popular with any past society. However that may be, the problems of today’s society are in need of this type of ‘expertise.'”

Thanks Nick, for the introduction. I think I am one of your planners, maybe your main man. And I work almost for free. Although, as you say, I have not been overly “rewarded” by today’s world, I have a secure life, good friends, and live very well in sunny South Texas.
I have written at some length and in considerable detail about my plans, which borrow much from other writers. The plan sees eight to ten great Solar Prosperity Corridors across 1000 mile expanses of earth’s continental reaches that are sunny, that is, between the two 40 degree latitudes, north and south. My plan transitions us from fossil/nuke fuels to 100% incoming and short-term-stored solar. There are hundred of benefits that come with my plan — land for Palestinians, peace and prosperity for Jews, respect for religions, a warm-water port for Russia, secure USA borders, better food production, efficient use of oil, clean air, water and irrigated farmlands to feed us all.
There are some tricky details, and I will need help, arranging the meetings. producing and recording the talks. But the overall vision is clear. It is a very smart plan, a comprehensive plan, just like that Nicholson wants.
Let us talk about it.
Newton, you are welcome to present your plan here at CommUnity of Minds. We are looking for solutions to the fossil fuel energy crisis.
