Tragedy

[Ranjeeth Kumar Thunga <rkthunga@humanmarkup.org>]

HumanMarkup Technical Committee,

 

We have somewhat hidden or obscure our idealism, as part of the HumanMarkup effort.  Yet, the utter terrible reality of human conflict is right outside my window--literally.  I have seen, from my view in Jersey City, the utter destruction of the World Trade Center.

 

Human conflict exists continue to multiply.   We HAVE to end the root causes of this of human conflict, or dedicate our lives trying.  This isn't idealism.  This is real terror that present day solutions are not effective.  Real hate and anger, diverted to cause the thousands upon thousands of casualities that mark only this one moment.

 

No, we can't dance around around the ideals of the project.  The amount we spent on our existing communication and military systems ARE SIMPLY NOT EFFECTIVE IN DEALING WITH HUMAN CONFLICT.  New systems are needed.

 

Whether fantastical or not, whether criticized or not,  whether successful or not, whether qualified or not, we ALL have to work together to TRULY end to do our best developing a new world system of human communication and conflict elimination.  We have no choice...
