On Saturday I went to half of Brian Swimme’s talk at River’s Edge in
Thinking about:
- Matter and spirit as synonyms
- To be sane in our culture is to be considered insane
- “We need to lean toward the conflict and not isolate ourselves with self-righteousness and blame.”
I went to Nonprofit Organizations and Management class last night.
- My professor referred to us as Idealogues. I looked it up: One given to fanciful ideas or theories; a theorist; a spectator.
- “The 1947 Studebaker was a well-engineered automobile, but the company did not adapt to its environment”. Ford stayed, Studebaker did not.
I went to economics class tonight.
Thinking about:
- Nothing is on sale if you don’t need it.
- An average person works 2,000 hours a year.
- Opportunity costs
- Demand curves
- Graphing maximum social benefit
- I have been wrapping my mind around the City Wheels car sharing program, and I am interested in tool sharing programs, but I had no idea an "art sharing program" exists at Oberlin College. Brilliant!

My car is available for borrowing if you ever need it. It basically sits in my driveway all week[end] long.
I was thinking about "organizing" a couple of folks for a weekly or whenever "errand-run" so that instead of each person driving in their car alone, a few pile into mine and we go where we have to go to TCB. Problem is, whenever I consider it, I'm always in the car, and have forgotten by the time I've gotten home. Except for this time. Now at least I've written it down.
Great Idea, Adam. I like the idea of stocking up on things as a group. We could even split the gas cost. As for borrowing your car, I have my own. I just like the idea of sharing a car better than the idea of owning a car . . .
