Short history of Ino-European Time concepts - "A timeline of Timelines" - but what is immediately glaring in it's presentation it IS ONLY about the Western tradition - no mention of Asian or New World calendars, or their cultural time orientation.

Back in the days of Sci-Fi Society and the HMS, I remember some fairly spirited discussions on how the perception of Time might be experienced by Trees, or Fungi, or even Rocks, or the Planet. Was the solar system breathing in and out with the Precession of the Equinoxes?

As we approach 2012, the new-age form of Millennialism is going to overtake all our conversations.  

Ok - now with the hard science out of the way...

Hey Everybody, I'm Getting Married To The Most Wonderful Woman... Maybe Magic Indeed!

They use our love against us.

They take such good care of our men! Remember that the Morrow Bldg bomber was a veteran. What can we expect in the years ahead?

I say let Mr. Bush live at a VA Hospital when he exits office, and be with the men that he led to war.

(What more spiritual subject can i broach???)

Voice your opposition to everyone you meet. Isn't there enough suffering in the world ???

Because of the miracles.

The loving touch of her hand.

The sight of her lifts me up.

He stopped me in the street. He said, "forget about what I'm talking about - listen to what Nature is saying!"

Well, I have been off and away from zaadz, my mind sucking on the unispirational teat of 21st century "entertainment".

'Course, looking at my previous post, I obviously needed distraction. Or maybe I should have been trying to focus...

I have been going through some medical treatments. Last week, I finally had some major corrective work done  - and really felt better afterwards - and came to the realization that I had been sick and in pain for months and months and months - and that the constant hum of discomfort had been feeding all sorts of ancillary problems - not the least of which was that I was numbed to my own pain level to some extent. 

Talking with co-workers and friends, I became aware that a significant portion of them shared some level of daily physical pain. And we are all somewhat desensitized to that in our lifes - and go on working and pushing... till as it does for all - we are overcome.

I don't know where I'm going with this. I have just been feeling good and alive and sorta reborn.

I have a well-loved recording of Baba Ram Das - he relates the lesson of another master who said that if we just stopped saying "Alas I am a sinner" and got down and did "the method" we'd all be getting to Heaven.

I was going to post a long list of city population numbers, but it was really too too long (no behind-the-cut here) so just some links. 

There are now more than 300 cities with more than a million inhabitants on our little blue planet - Mumbai (Bombay) in the lead with way over 12 million, and most of these metropolises predominantly are NOT in North America.

Lots and lots of us. The imperative is co-operation...

Saw these "from the air" - fantastic - pics of the Mexico City area -

I have been crawling the web of links here at Zaadz and reading so many folk's pages - now, I don't want to be like the founders and have a 1000 friends on my Friends list - but there sure are alot of interesting things to read and meet and connect with.

Positive, uplifting, and helpful things I've been reading. Thats just great.

I just want to say Hey to everybody. I ain't felt this global since Napster.
