I hate to be a killjoy, but when money gets redirected from
projects that help build communities and give voice to people to
those that involve university and institute researchers crunching
out more and more numbers to produce more and more articles that
get read by other academic researchers, we have a problem!

"The philosophers have only interpreted the world in various
ways.  The point however is to change it."

*************************************************************
In the early hours I read in the paper of epoch-making projects
On the part of pope and sovereigns, bankers and oil barons.
With my other eye I watch
The pot with the water for my tea
The way it clouds and starts to bubble and clears again
And overflowing the pot quenches the fire.

 -- Bertolt Brecht
