Welcome to the Club of Liars!
“Fantasies are free.”
“NO! NO! It’s the thought police!”
It’s paradoxical to say one is not free to think what one thinks. On the one hand, and as a destined liar anyway, since I think that I am not free to think what I think I’d never tell anyone. On the other hand, if we were all free to think what we think I’d prefer to think that we are not.
[Ratta says, just because you read something on a blog does not mean it is true.]
Someone has to say it all:
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
— Bertrand Russell.
Useless, but true (fun).
just because this is “Art” doesn’t mean anyone fucking cares.
I do not care. I do not care that no one cares. I do not care about a piece of “Art” telling me that I possibly do not care. What does it mean to take no care? Ignore me! If I do not care that I do not care I could just as well care about it. … And, yet, we have not talked about what “Art” means, nor why anyone fucking should care or why anyone would want to care at all.
At the beginning of the film “United 93” it says
It’s time.
It’s time. This is what the crusaders of ecology and sustainability keep telling us, too.
It’s time that we ask what is time.
Never forget.

The film “An Inconvenient Truth” shall come to local theaters in September 2006. What will it be? The Weisslog (weblog in German by Die Zeit) pointed to a related article by Slate Magazine:
Bigger Smash: Hurricanes cause more damage because there’s more for them to wreck. By Gregg Easterbrook, posted Tuesday, June 20, 2006
Being wrong or at least being contradicted always charmingly embraces my
confidence in being right.
There must be something about sustainability that is pretty scarily dangerous. I have seen quite many projects, institutions, lecture series, websites, forums and more, all about sustainable development, sustainability research, and human ecology, and yet they simply stopped, evaporated, ceased to exist, or got nixed.
