[quote=WINDENERGY,243390]Sorry to hear this. It seems as though everywhere I have moved to has become a "boom" town. I think underneath all the hoopla of "getting rich" lays a deeper foundation of a sense of purpose. Is the endgame goal a larger house, a larger family, a larger car...how about a Hummer? A perfect example is the now-popular mobile phone. Not only have scientific studies discovered that the electronic radiation created by this 'technological marvel' can be deadly....I just wish the slogan "connecting people" would continue into some sort of meaningful purpose.

For that matter, I am about to discard my mobile phone, since I have a telephone in my apartment.

So the foundation of purpose, 'a sense of value', in a senseless and chaotic society can lead a person from anxiety into depression. I think about riding my bicycle through a smog-infested city and think I would rather not. What sort of connection is there? Well, at least riding my bicycle is a better alternative to standing up on a bus and tolerating the driver's constant pumping on the brakes, but let's get down to it.....were we put on this earth to assist some techno-industrial Mammoth-Machine have It's way into our pocketbooks and our brains? I DON"T THINK SO.

So, I will end with a quote from a fellow environmentalist, "Live wild or die"!
