Did you know she, Stephen King, and a few other famous authors formed a rock band and went on tour back in the 90s?? LOL.

Instead of re-education, I meant something more of a revolution or re-evaluation, and definitely more spiritual than for governing practicality in nature. So, yes, I still hope for a "reeducation" of the common folk. As I wrote this, I think I may have been haste in using the term “re-education”.

BTW I found this post to be really insightful. Such a ruler can only be God. Are you still hoping for a re-education of the people?

It seems that humans will, in general, ALWAYS follow the path of least resistance. I never thought of applying that concept to these situations. Fulfilling our immediate desires (i.e. speed and entertainment) and encountering no resistance (i.e. braking and waking-up) seem to constitute a recipe for human rationale. Great analysis, sir.

I personally don't think I could deal with the mental and emotional turmoil, so I have tons of respect for those that can deal with it. :) I really admire your strength to be able to volunteer in a hospital.
