I for one do not want to see all politics go elsewhere.  On the other  
hand I have been very frustrated with the list of late.  I rarely see  
something here that really seems to lead toward our deepest dreams  
and goals or even elucidate them more clearly.  If we don't do more  
of that with one another then I think we are doing ourselves a  
disservice and missing a real opportunity.   We are chattering along  
about things that most everyone chatters about will the world  
threatens to go belly up and the still all too powerful clock ticks  
away the precious seconds of our lives.

I also notice in myself and others that we are quick to criticize or  
to cut down but very slow to listen, understand, encourage and bring  
out the best in each other, our ideas and our efforts.    This isn't  
a race that will go to the really smart ones who sail across the  
finish with their nose in the air in distain of almost everyone else.
