Nothing is Impossible...

Sometimes as we read these philosophical texts, I get kind of down. It seems like we live in such a huge system; I can't comprehend it, let alone figure out a way to make it work well for everyone. But then I realize what amazing thinkers that are alive right now are doing to help us live better. This video is from TED Talks, and I have a dream of someday attending a real TED conference. Meanwhile, I continue to be inspired by the videos they post at their site. Watch the video of Hans, how he visualizes data to help SEE what exists now, and also how he defines "means" and "goals" and shows that we need to be clear on the distinction. And he gives us a surprise ending too!

Enjoy--and tell me what you think!
