Thanks for inspiring the thoughts.

Sadly I think that there are an abundance of people for whom there is only one quality, and it is "subjective" in it's nature.

Maybe it's a backlash/overcompensation from generations of people being sold on doing something for "a greater good", which always seems to have lined someone's pockets.

Wow, you've dredged up a quote I read about 30 years ago.

“We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams.”
