As principles this great country were built upon continue to disappear, so will rights and freedoms that they provided. The principle of separation of state and church has all but disappeared. What will self-serving politicians take from us next? Maybe they'll want to ban books on black history, or restrict your use of Internet. Are we going to allow that? Of course not!

It doesn't make sense to not be involved in politics these days. The future of America hinges on your participation. Whether that is only a letter, an email, or an article in an ezine, you must speak out. As an elected official, I'm sure Rep Gerald Allen would love to hear your comments about his new bill. Here is his contact information. Interestingly enough, he doesn't provide an email address.

Gerald Allen (Rep.) District 62 State House: Room 531 11 S. Union Street Post Office Box 71001 Montgomery, AL 36130 Tuscaloosa, AL 35407 State House (334) 242-7758 Work Phone (205) 556-5310

Roger is secret scribe for group, journaling all that organization does on a ‘blog’ or on-line journal, hoping to save their activities for posterity. Websites are being constructed on separate issues, and experts speak daily on email and video conferencing facilities. The Internet is a ‘home’ for these crusaders to share knowledge, true wealth in life. I snuck a peak at ‘Reducing Poverty’ website, ideas expressed there jolted me out of my ‘comatose’ normality. Famous economists and sociologists were discussing new ways to achieve a balance of wealth for all of humanity. Some concepts expressed were: A salary cap on all occupations; so-called ‘second’ and ‘third world’ nations become part of ‘one world’ after ‘first world’ countries share wealth and knowledge to develop less well-off societies; and how to set up basic industry to sustain populations with constant food energy, and economic growth.

Other websites were also equally optimistic and detailed in their practical approaches to solving problems. I especially found chat room for Environment Sustainability of interest. It looks like most people want to integrate nature back into being a basic part of human existence. I’m not only one who misses sitting in forest reading E books on my laptop, while listening to birds singing. I’ve always dreamt of throwing nuts at monkeys. Scientists here have heaps of ideas on how to regenerate Earth and bring back endangered species from brink of extinction to a state of balance.

Well, revolution is about to come, rich are going to share their wealth with masses, and important figures in government are putting wheels in motion for a true egalitarian society. Soon they say, secret will be shared with everyone, and all who wish to partake in bringing change will have chance to join cause. I know Dianne Winters will be first in line. I’ve been waiting to smile for a long, long time; I’m ready to put myself ‘out there’. Like Roger, it’s time for me to CONNECT, to become a ‘Fixer’.
