Apr 27 2013: so sure a FB page and certainly some other than promoted interest, busy as I am it will either do nothing as my detractors seem to want or once I get time to spend time it might be a good thing, in any event its something, weak critique aside.

Apr 26 2013: Naturally.. points taken, and I am absolutely drawn to what the tedsters accomplish and need not differentiate if higher disconnect indeed fits. Directly I am ill effected by a couple of negative responses and the case made for it here.
I would not have marveled at teds were they so inclusive so come to ted talks as an important place for me in this new information age and the transitions to it.
As I have allowed time its place and tonic I first and most importantly recognize how the dialogue has swerved away from any semblance of the topic. And i am intent on wrapping up the focus on whether or not tearing down ideas or otherwise reflecting nothing close to the spirit of the talks I have seen. As it becomes apparent again my effort is toward the vision I have interpreted ted discussion board affords. All while honoring your interjections I do not think this particular back and forth, you and I, is on beam as I see it. While you feel certainly clear about how this forum works best and it's limits it may help me not to extend that perception to my understanding. People laughed and mocked me on this idea and your posture I have navigated to a point where while points taken I suspect we do not share the same perspective. Good day sir.
Apr 26 2013: Thank you Fritzie for great insights taken in tonight for a time to digest and readdress tomorrow.
As I do intend to do this I cannot resist first recognizing that in an "action science" sense it would be unfortunate. There seems to be more intelligence compressed here @ Ted than most other places so as in an open forum it is attractive. It would however be a shame if indeed it turns out to be simply a spot where we all spin in place, one gargantuan ego playing in league with another of similar size bantering on infinitely blah blah blah and so on.
A very goodnight!.
Apr 26 2013: First Fritzie great and good to see your interest and efforts to help. Yes to all of your questions in fact emphatically yes, dissection discussion and perspective as well. But there is obviously terse response vs a civil discourse. I find the fact Pat responds with nothing but a contrary statement and looks to me to engage him without making any initial point is high riding. In fact having admittedly looked at his arguments, and they seem exclusively that, over posts I decided his value is not appreciated in my heart I know this. This idea is my discussion and there are other open letters on Ted so it is not that hard a concept to follow. And so some here have baseless arguments it has been noted and I refuse to engage. I am optimistic and fail to see merit in such overall negativity. I have two respondents who beg an argument based on what patterns I see with other posts. This is not my problem it is decidedly a problem at Ted. It is no more than flaming and it troubles me. But as I said optimism carries me when folks laugh out loud at me or try to drag me to their shallow depths of conflict for its sake only it does not work. I am happy and will probably remain this way. Who is better off?
Apr 25 2013: It upsets me when responses are from those who when researched, seem bent on dragging conversations into confrontations with little in the way of reality or construct from any reasonable viewpoint. SO PLEASE if you cannot or will not be a civil responder with only constructive criticism and with a thoughtful reach toward "the golden rule" stay away from anything I write. I will from here forward ignore your simple flaming effort and the rule is.. treat others how you would like to be treated in case you missed that day in school. Thank you.
Apr 7 2013: In this information age, we are all invited to re-think the existing dynamics you point up. Analysis of quality of life ought to be significant because as we all know although money is better than un money it will not in itself provide happiness.
Being cracked up as a solvent however it enjoys attraction by those willing to sacrifice morality, sanity and physical well being in order to obtain it, These varying lengths people will go certainly are part of their cost and so part of such a debate.
A scale then ought to apply where ones personal extensions exceed a wealth measure. How this happens I cannot even begin to say. The wealthiest country in the world and one of the most productive cannot claim a place anywhere near top when it comes to happiness.
Mar 26 2013: http://www.sf-police.org Here not surprisingly is an example from our friends in the progressive city of san francisco. Their web site set up certainly lacks a bunch but is a big step in the right direction.
I'd like to see a logical accessible presence available to expand on and bet it will become a frequently copied model as in interface once better high speed net policy makes its way to everyone. There are cheaper more available faster internet services in third world countries than in ours believe it or not. So that much is part of the reason this type of thing is vacant now but so important for us. I bet the SFPD website has helped in many different ways to protect aand serve the people of their city.
