getting back to an old subject...

[Rolf van Slooten]

This would work, but only for two percent of the population, the rest of 
humanity would be totally overwhelmed by all the abundance. lying in bed, 
sitting in a chair playing an abundance of free videogames and eating 
pizza's until they die of obesity and no goal in life.

Only 2 percent will be unhappy with this situation and aim for the stars, 
build spaceships and escape this deadly paradise.

Unhappiness with your current situation will set goals, goals wich set you 
free from your current live which give you life meaning. Happiness is in the 
journey, not in the actual achievement of your goal. Unsatisfaction is a 
blessing, a force which drives men to achieve everything they want.

But only for 2 percent of all men...

:-)
Cheers,
Rolf
