Re: You know that I accept your (4.00 / 4)

In the last year or so, I have made more progress with getting practical projects going than in the previous five.

Basically people are running out of conventional options, so it's a variation of Sherlock Holmes' dictum that if you eliminate the impossible, that leaves only the highly improbable.

In particular, I have got several excellent connections and opportunities/projects in the US, and am planning a trip (as yet unfunded) around a speaking engagement in Philadelphia at the end of April.

Let me know if you get that organized. (none / 1)

I might be able to set up airfare to Portland, OR and a couple of meetings. You can stay with us.

Portland is a regular hotbed of radicalism......

Highly improbable (4.00 / 5)

I feel very fortunate to know Mr Chris Cook, who has done more than (al)most (everybody) to improve my perceptions and inspire rethinking. And especially privileged to have observed the conceptual evolution of an understandable view of economic dynamics that points to possible solutions. An observation conducted over - what is it? - five years.

Your increasing traction is a source of great personal satisfaction ;-)

Yes, developments since then make it even more interesting - though sadly I am snowed under, in more ways than one, for the next 3 months. Perhaps we could look at it again at the end of the summer?

Indeed.

I think I might be in a better position myself by then, as well.

Generic mobile payments and Nokia are key, I think.
