BITCOIN AND NXT What is Bitcoin? You may have heard of Bitcoin on TV, or in a conversation with friends. Truth is, Bitcoin is more than just “funny money”, in fact it is now a force to be reckoned with. Dig a little further and you will find Bitcoin is actually an extremely fascinating concept. Bitcoin is an internet digital currency. Unlike other digital currencies like PayPal, Bitcoin is decentralized. Decentralization, in the context of Bitcoin, means every transaction made on the Bitcoin network can be viewed by anyone around the whole world. Furthermore, all the information of Bitcoin transactions is downloaded onto every Bitcoin users computer making it impossible to shut down the Bitcoin network. The Bitcoin protocol cannot be hacked and if backed up correctly can be even safer than storing your money in a bank. Bitcoin can be used to buy things in the real world. Want a new TV? A cup of coffee to start the day? Try paying for it with Bitcoin. “At its core, bitcoin is a smart currency, designed by very forward-thinking engineers. It eliminates the need for banks, gets rid of credit card fees, currency exchange fees, money transfer fees, and reduces the need for lawyers in transitions… all good things” - Peter Diamandis

What is NXT? NXT is a cryptocurrency just like Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency that started it all, however, it is limited in its functionality. NXT takes cryptocurrencies to the next level. NXT is labelled as Bitcoin 2.0 because of its ability to host IPOs and small businesses. NXT can be used to crowdfund any project, large or small. The best comparison is that NXT is like the cryptocurrency stock market. NXT has many innovative projects already yielding results and users who hold those assets reap the benefits through dividends. The NXT wallet is also regularly updated, fully functioning, dynamic and easy to use.

GET BULLISH ON Monthly NXT/SuperNet News Wrap-up

Tangled in a Web of SuperNet Assets It is completely normal to feel overwhelmed by the complexity and depth of the SuperNet. Jl777, lead coder of SuperNet project, has created a masterpiece that is well ahead of the pack in terms of innovation. The best way to fully understand SuperNet is to look into each project one by one independently of each other. Once you understand each individual project you will notice that SuperNet client is merely the entity that brings all of the individual projects together. Trying to understand the how with SuperNet can be counterproductive at times since there is a lot of coding. As an investor, however, some services are relatively easy to understand, here are a few: BitcoinDark - Decentralized cryptocurreny coin which focuses on privacy and will be utilized for a range of SuperNet services. InstantDEX - Decentralized cryptocurrency exchange Pangea Poker - Decentralized poker NeoDICE - Decentralized dice rolling betting game UNITY (SuperNet) - The core umbrella asset that receives revenue from every area of SuperNet To the right is a chart created by Audo. This chart represents what each asset owns and how revenue is generated. Each asset in brown can be indivdually obtained on the NXT asset exchange.

NXT Price - The Good and the Bad November was a real rollercoaster ride for NXT. There were two significant incidents which affected the price of NXT dramatically. The first was the BTC pump. At the start of November BTC pumped to this year`s all time high with levels of $500 recorded at Bitfinex. BTC within 4 days gained approximately 53% in value. This dramatically changed the altcoin environment. Almost every altcoin went down that is paired with BTC, however some altcoins kept there value to fiat currencies. NXT was one of those altcoins that actually went up in value when paired to USD. The second was related to SuperNet possibly breaking away from NXT. This turned out to be false however... it did have some users worried. Not only did NXT plummet, but a lot of SuperNet assets plummeted too. Users that picked up some cheap SuperNet assets were extremely lucky! If you are an owner of an asset which pays dividends, the likelihood of the dividend being higher than usual is a real possibility at these prices.

LIQUID turns to LQD, Makes Deal with Nautiluscoin Liquid is a market maker/arbitrage hybrid bot which trades liquid cryptocurrencies, as well as FX trading. Liquid is well known for its transparency and balance sheet. All trades, balances and profits are available on their website. In order for Liquid to compete with the growing volume of the markets, Liquid rebranded to LQD and released a new IPO to raise funds. Libertynow, owner of LQD aims to raise 20M NXT. So far, an impressive 6M NXT has been raised. The dividend this month is likely to be a good one. On top of the IPO, LQD has also secured a deal to market make Nautilscoin. Nautilscoin, like all altcoins, are subject to volatility in the market. Being that Nautilscoin is used in real life within the Greek islands of Agistri, it is important for the currency to remain stable.

SuperNet Chrome App Announcement At the beginning of November, jl777 and killakem revealed an interesting direction for SuperNet, a SuperNet Chrome App. Previous applications have been used in the past by the Blitz team which is headed by killakem. This development is one step forward in bringing SuperNet to the masses. Chrome applications are extremely simple to download and use. At this moment the project is under the code name "iguana". "James has now ported the InstantDEX codebase and much of the SuperNET code to a chrome app, this greatly simplifies the installation/configuration of SuperNET and Idex. The chrome app is going to increase the usage of SuperNET x10 once its released, its confident this change in architecture will propel SuperNET to the top of the crypto 2.0 scene." said killakem in SuperNet slack.

NXTinfo.org Website Launched After a long period of anticipation, NXTinfo.org is finally ready for the public. The website is run by Dee22 and KarlKarlsson, two prominent and active members within the NXT community. The aim of this website is to provide new services for traders and…investors, “including…an average price calculator, a performance calculator and an asset evaluator. The latter two services are linked to our ‘historic Nxt dividend database’ which should certainly help to guarantee added value for users of our ecosystem." Current NXTinfo features include: Average Price Calculator: Compute the average price at which you have traded an asset. This feature is needed when a position has been accumulated or sold over successive trading periods and has therefore been traded at different prices. Performance Calculator: Calculate the exact return you made with a certain asset. What makes our calculator unique is the fact that it includes dividend payments in the computation. We are aiming to include as many dividendpaying assets and their respective payouts into our database as possible. Asset Evaluator: Compare different assets with each other based on multiple parameters. Be it the dividend periodicity, the dividend return or the trading volume. At the time of launch, this feature is in its most basic form and will be further developed based on community feedback and our own vision. Nxt Faucet: The Nxt community is missing a faucet, which is why we have included one in NXTinfo. Get yourself some NXT (4 NXT per payout) and use it to get started with Nxt or to simply pay your Nxt transactions. Note that currently each e-mail address is only eligible for one payout. In addition to this are more features that in time will be added including a " Nxt portfolio tracker with which you can follow your assets and their respective performance, again including dividend payments" If you wish to donate, send NXT to NXT-3FV3-LS6S-WFTF-H6S2Y If you wish to support the faucet, send NXT to NXT-7YPL-9SRG-7BYX-GHBV9

InstantDEX Update: 3 Clients to Be Made In a recent turn of events, Tosch and Eth have taken over the GUI development of InstantDEX. In an offical statement they had this to say, " ...we’d like to take this opportunity to announce that the iDEX GUI delivery is now being handled by CPMT team-members ‘Tosch’ and ‘Eth’. Having already begun their collaborative effort in a proactive response to the previous dev’s difficulties in completing the assignment to the standard required within the time available, we anticipate that the coding and design skills they bring to the project will see it rapidly completed and delivered as part of upcoming SuperNET GUI application releases." There is no doubt that InstantDEX has seen some unfortunate hurdles, however, recent developments show nice progress. Keep yourself updated with developments HERE

The Tennessee Project: New Competitions The Tennessee Project has started two new, fun competitions that encourage humour, art, and a bit of crazy. The first is a meme contest where people are encouraged to create memes that are NXT related. Each week has a theme. The current theme is "soon". The other is a paint competition. The competition requires that you only use MS Paint in order to create a picture representing the theme of the week. The theme is "Why EVERYONE should adopt NXT!". First prize gets 500NXT, second prize gets 300NXT, third prize gets 200NXT and honorable mentions get 100NXT. It is all a bit of fun so give it a go! Click on the picture below to see some examples.

TWO WORLDS

Two Worlds

by Damon

Seperation We are born, spend most of our lives in public education or watching television. We hit 18 years of age, go to college for even more public education or we start working. We spend most our adults live in a mechanistic world, trading labor for food, shelter, and health care. Other than a few weeks of vacation every year, this is the vast majority of our lives. Most people earn between just enough and not enough to pay for the basics of shelter, food and disease care. A few retire with enough money to barely live a relaxed life, but many will work till the body passes on. Our spare time is minimal, little time to smell the roses, no time to enjoy the interconnectedness of life, no time to pursue our passions without them feeling like an inconvenience, no time to live an inspired life, no time or energy for compassion or patience. We are trained to be dismissive and obedient, not to believe in abundance, to believe we have to compete or have nothing, or to work ourselves to death to have barely, to believe that those in geographical locations far away from us are out to get us. In this world, a very miniscule subset of the people are trusted to nurture and steward the world and it's inhabitants. A monopolized few decide what most are taught in schools. A minority elite control what is shown in the 'news'. A barely noticeable fraction of society controls the laws. A committee of just a few control the worlds major currencies. These same handful exploit the land for profit at the expense of the rest of humanity while laying waste to the animals and plants of this planet. These few hide their actions while spying on the rest and generally own and control most of the worlds Corporate for profit. Governments that use false definitions of the words Social, Community, Market, Liberty, Republic, Democracy and so many more. This tiny handful drive the Election system that aims to polarize and present the false illusion of choice. This world is cold and dark, with little support. Circumstances frustrate us dozens or hundreds of times a day. We wake up earlier than we would like, sleep less than what is healthy, spend most of our days in survival mode, have little time to enjoy our meals, and not nearly enough time to spend with our most cherished family and friends. This world is full of drama and trouble that plays out over and over again in changing settings, in a continual escalation.

TWO WORLDS

Presence We live an inspired life. We can literally do anything we choose, as long as we reciprocally hold out the best intentions for others. If there are one or more governing bodies, they exist only by expressed consent, and anyone can withdraw consent at anytime. It's understood that Governing bodies are transparent to the people while the people remain private or public by choice. Anyone can decide to offer a system of knowledge, wisdom, or education, not forced on another, but as a choice. Currency can be created or used by anyone of their freewill, and there are as many currencies as communities. We each get to decide for ourselves who we want aiding us in our health and well being. We have ample time to enjoy our creative selves, be it music, art or science. In a cyclic manner, we enjoy times of solitude/ independence and times of community, and we have the free will choice in every moment. We realize that in every moment of anger or frustration, it's the infinite wisdom of the universe unfolding events before us in an effort to resolve that separation within us. Presence is Being the Heart Centered Inspired Expression of the Genuine Self in the Now Time. We embrace the seemingly limitless moments of frustration and anger, since we know it's that power that created all life, never giving up in choreographing events, to aid us in moving from a place of separation to a place of presence. Presence laughs out loud, the moment it comes out of the state of Separation, that moment when it realized the only reason for the drama and the trouble was for the purpose of moving awareness back to Presence. Presence enjoys the uniqueness yet interconnectedness of all and the abundance it is afforded. Presence does not attach to the left or the right, nor sits on the fence between.

TranspoTime21Bus Chapter 2 Just before carrying on telling you what happened to our lives in Hat City I would like to tell you about my meeting with the 21 Transpotimers in the year 2015. Do not worry, I promise you I will tell you what happened in Hat City in chapter 3 but now back to the present time. Neither of us were so naĂŻve to think all was going to be a safe journey with no danger and plenty of uncomplicated sex with future human beings. Some of us embarked on this trip because living in a completely urban environment can wear you out after a while. Others just split with their wife or girlfriends and wanted a new life to kill their sorrows. There are lots of different reasons why the 21 TranspoTimers decided to risk their life into the unknown. How could we know all the possible scenarios we might face in the future. Yet, the 21 Transpotimer argued predicting all the shapes of our destiny ahead. A good example is the sharing conversations of all the Transpotimers.

Go back to see what is on JL777's mind in Damon's article

Roberto TM: Lootz do you think I am stupid and irresponsible for bringing all these Transpotimers into the unknown future? Lootz: I dont speak to stupid people, so no you are not. Furthermore, I am really delighted to leave our time and make history. You are a good guy, a bit nutter but a good guy after all. It's not what we believe what is important but what you believe in. Roberto TM: Thanks Lootz I do appreciate your kindness and nice words towards me. Do you all know that Proto will be the driver of the TranspoTime21Bus? Proto: I don't want to be the driver, the bus is too big for me to drive! Roberto TM: I am giving you the honour to drive the TranspoTime21Bus and you come with these silly excuses... grow up and take yours responsabilities! Proto: I'm only learning to drive small cars right now. Roberto TM: don't you have a driving licence? Proto: No Roberto TM: What the hell! Proto: I didn't volunteer yet to drive the bus, I'm still working on my driving lessons

TRANSPOTIME21BUS As John Guare once said ''It's amazing how a little tomorrow can make up for a whole lot of yesterday.â&#x20AC;? This is the mission of the 21 Knights of the TranpoTime21Bus or better known as The 21 Transpotimers travelling to the future in search of the Cryptoland. Thats why our Damon fellow joined this mission. Proto: Damon what do you expect from this trip into the future? Damon: I don't expect anything, only hope to inspire others to stop being so limited in their belief that this world we are living now is the only world they can imagine. The very essence of finding another world in the future is to allow others to thrive in their own way Proto: What is the difference between the world we are living and the world you would like to find in the future? Damon: Two worlds: 1) Old world - FIAT, CONTROL, MANIPULATION 2) New World, all are empowered, all are allowed the freedom to be inspired in anyway they can this world is 'Cryptoland' Proto: Do you have a Future Map to Cryptoland so we can program Transpotime21bus to go there? Damon: Yes , Gifted Girl has it Proto: Do you mean JL777? Damon: Yes and aliens are trying to kidnap her so we can't travel to Cryptoland. The map is buried in JL777's brain. She just escaped two days ago from these aliens that's why we need to embark into the future before they find her Proto: Oh my god what happened? Damon: It was two days ago on a cloudy morning when an alien spaceship landed on the roof of my house. As it settled onto the roof, two aliens stepped out. The aliens had beady black eyes that seemed to pop out of their overlarge heads like demonic golf balls with only three unshapely fingers on each hand and four widespread toes on their feet. They looked like frogs that had somehow gone wrong halfway through conception. I asked JL777 to hide under the bed and stay still as my feeling was that they were just after Gifted Girl. Then they walked up to me with their feet making squishy noises against the cold, wet ground. Then they said "Take me to your bathroom!" I took them to my bathroom and they locked me in. Then, they screwed my dog and drank my vodka. Finally they destroyed the whole house stealing all my NXT and CORE and returning to the mother ship with shouts of '' We will find Gifted Girl next time!'' They stumbled out to their ship and got on board with big smile faces. I could see through their spaceships window and one was waving goodbye with one finger at me and my dog sitting down on my side saying '' I hope to see you again soon''

Tune in next month for Chapter 3

GROWING PAINS

NXT and SuperNet Exhibit Growing Pains Early in November SuperNet and NXT had what could best be described as a mini crisis. A commonly held belief within the NXT community is that SuperNet and NXT work side by side. It is true that the two entities are a match made in heaven, however sometimes friends disagree. When the words, “So I say goodbye” from highly respected SuperNet programmer JL777 appeared on the NXT forum, the world of NXT started running around like a bunch of headless chickens. Everyone had their own opinion and conspiracy theories appeared. As expected, the chaos ended and positive steps were taken to ensure a mindful and peaceful co-existence. So let’s take a step back and see what really happened. The source of the problem is NXT’s software updates. As you know, NXT is still a young financial system and it has ambitions to be the leading 2.0 cryptocurrency. In order for NXT to evolve, updates are inevitable. Some of these updates are small, whilst others are large. It was these large updates that concerned SuperNet. Updating software is usually seen as a good thing. For example, if one of your favourite computer games is being updated this is usually a positive. In the world of finance on the other hand, this can bring mixed results depending on what is updated. NXT’s recent update made significant changes to what we call the API. The API is essentially the code in the program that holds everything together. Programs that are built on top of financial systems require a steady API or else their programs simply crash. Some of SuperNET's applications were affected by NXT’s new API changes. As you can imagine, SuperNET was particularly upset at these changes. JL777, known for his work ethic and ability to code groundbreaking technology in little to no time, saw some of his work become unusable, another setback in his work. JL777 accused NXT of not giving ample warning and a lack of documentation of the upcoming release.

GROWING PAINS There is no doubt the NXT developers made some mistakes. In fact, apologies were made. Riker, NXT’s PR representative, said in NXT’s forum, “So once again apologies for anyone who has been affected by this mis-communicated API change.” What came next were a series of discussions with NXT core developer Jean-Luc, JL777 and two mediators (evildave and damelon). It was clear in the discussions that JL777 wanted backward compatibility implemented. This basically means that if there are changes to the API, applications built on an old version could revert back to an older version. The NXT developers said this was impractical. After the discussions, there was a period of uncertainty. Was SuperNet really going to leave NXT? The answer is no. According to a SuperNet statement, SuperNet will continue to use NXT, however they did urge NXT to implement an industry-standard 1-year deprecation policy. This means that the API would not be changed for a whole year, and if it were to be it would be communicated well in advance. So how did it get to this stage? There are many theories, however it was pretty clear that it came down to miscommunication and misunderstanding. There was a large period of time when SuperNet nor NXT had a proper PR representative. In fact, Riker was only just recruited a few days before the incident as NXT’s PR representative. What is important to note is that SuperNet’s statement was extremely positive and a real crisis was averted. Groundbreaking SuperNet technology built on top of the best decentralized financial system is one hell of a combination. For the official SuperNet statement, click HERE. "Yes, for our financial operations we are completely with NXT, for the operational side, we really do hope that the core NXT developers find suitable our request, since it is just following industry standards. superNET always have developed based on different platforms (BTCD, NXT) and we do honestly like to expand and investigate possible improvements in this aspect, and that will continue too. So basically, nothing changes too much, there are parts of superNET that indeed will explore other platforms for both research and stability purposes, but superNET is not leaving NXT by any means." - eth

SUPERNET

SuperNet: Now and Beyond Asset ID: 12071612744977229797

with t3cltd

It was an interesting month for NXT and SuperNet. How would you describe the relationship between NXT and SuperNet now? The relationship between NXT and SuperNET is still as it always was, one of community co-operation and communication. Both project platforms have a great deal they can bring to the other and much has been accomplished in the twelve months or so since SuperNET’s inception, with many longstanding members of the NXT community putting themselves forward to help develop and promote the various facets of this ‘Crypto 2.0’ environment.

At the beginning of November things were very intense. Could you tell us the feeling within the CPMT team? The CPMT addressed the issues arising during November as being no different to those dealt with during any other month. The nature of the situation is discussed, along with a number of possible resolutions. Some problems can be more frustrating than others but SuperNET has a wide-range of resources and talent to call on in order to better gauge the most appropriate route to take.

What ideas were the CPMT team considering during the crisis? I don’t think any situation we’ve experienced so far would fit the word, ‘crisis’. We are, after all, talking about a multi-layered decentralised organisational structure. The biggest hurdle to overcome is in correctly establishing the facts, the potential consequences and ideal solution, while communicating a sufficiently reasoned position to explain such in order to encourage the needed change to be implemented. A number of proposals were put forward, along with contingency planning in the event of difficulty in reaching a workable solution, with the focus being on seeking to minimise disruption or delays as much as possible.

There is some tension between key developers of both platforms. Does the future hold some kind of reconciliation between the two parties and what would be needed to do so?

SUPERNET There is no need to ‘reconcile’ when the position is clearly and objectively reasoned. If there is personal tension between some developers it isn’t part of the CPMT’s or, for that matter, SuperNET’s, remit to engage at that level. Everybody involved wants to play their part in developing the future of FinTech and this requires the occasional reminder that we might have the ‘Tech’ part conquered in terms of bleeding-edge innovation, but the ‘Fin’ aspect still needs to function to the commercial level of the real-world in order to translate into the cutting-edge. This means being able to promote the technology as a stable and manageable working environment, with sufficient quality and implementation controls, for existing financial entities to be encouraged to participate.

What is SuperNet's plan for the future? Do you think SuperNet will stay with NXT or is there a possibly to move to a different blockchain? SuperNET’s plans for the future are to complete and roll-out the myriad of existing project-arms, only some of which are managed centrally. The CPMT, while acting as a more cohesive and centralised organisational core to the decentralised development structure, is not a controlling authority of SuperNET, its community members are and there are many groups and thirdparties working on different elements of the wider ecosystem. Technology and practicality will dictate how front and back-end systems will evolve, not personality.

Any exciting news we can expect from SuperNet in the upcoming months? Delivery. SuperNet is currently working on a range of exciting features that are very close to being rolled out. InstantDEX is now being developed by tosch and eth, two highly respected coders. Pangea Poker is gaining strong momentum with jl777 working on the API and mr.e working on the GUI. At the same time jl777 is working on an easy to use Chrome Application for SuperNet as well as crypto777. Despite small setbacks, CORE remains bullish on SuperNet success and we are planning to expand our SuperNet portofolio in the near future.

TRANSFERCOIN

Community takes over with infernoman

Could you give us a bit of a history of the takeover of Transfer Coin? Transfercoin was actually introduced to me by a friend of mine, Wigitgetit. Some of you may know him, as he has definitely been doing a big part of the promotion for Transfer Coin. I can't tell you much about the original developer, because I didn't speak with him much myself. When I was introduced to Transfer Coin, there was already a roadmap in place, and quite a bit of development going on. There wasn't an outrageous number of coins, or an outrageous premine. Whatever coins the original developer has or had, he definitely worked for them. Nearing the end of his communincation, the prices were dying. And I managed to pick some coins up for cheap so I could play around with the masternodes since I didn't know too much about them. I ended up making a remote masternode service for Transfer Coin (here), as well as an IRC channel and tipbot (here). I ran into a few problems with the remote masternodes. I contacted the developer for some help, and he said he would relay this to his developers. After a few days time and getting fed up waiting, I started looking around for a bit of help from someone who was more familiar with the codebase. I was introduced to the DarkSilk developer who is working on the same codebase for DarkSilk. That was more than 10, 000 lines of code ago.

Who is currently developing Transfer Coin and what work have you done in the past? My name is Alastair Clark and I am currently the lead developer for Transfer Coin. Most of my previous work is done on Node.Js and html. But I did a small amount of work for another coin which unfortunately doesn't have much interest in it and is struggling to stay alive with very little people staking. My biggest project is http://infernopool.com and I have done various tip bots for both twitter and IRC. I have been a member of the Neoscoin community since the beginning and have done a LOT of work with the developers there. I can't say enough about the Neoscoin developers. They have taught me a lot and helped me through multiple issues that i've run into.

Could you go through some of the features of Transfer Coin and what makes this coin unique to other coins? I am working on making Transfer Coin as a replacement for all of the other coins that have Proof of Stake and the inclusion of masternodes. A lot of the times you'll find that masternodes drop off the network. Darksend doesn't work and neither does instantX. Transfer Coin was also having these issues, and believe me we noticed. In version 1.2.1 we have done a ton of changes and a ton of testing to match Dash 0.11.2's codebase as best as possible while trying to keep intact our own codebase for POS. This has resulted in a much lighter client. Masternodes that don't have nearly as many issues as they did before, plus darksend and instantX features that actually work instead of just looking pretty. Another thing I would like to talk about is the recent addition of Cross-Sending, which allows you to send Transfer Coin to Bittrex and instantly sell into Bitcoin as long as you have the funds on Bittrex available to sell. This feature is also encrypted when you encrypt your wallet. So nobody will be able to access your account or API keys, unless your wallet is unlocked. SO LOCK THOSE WALLETS UP !

What features do you have lined up for the future? The current plans for the future are to catch up with the latest Bitcoin and Dash cores. Currently we are up to date with 0.11.2 of the Dash core, minus a few implementations from Bitcoin. For our Proof of stake, we reference Blackcoin. And we have recently added PosV3 as well as decentralized checkpointing. Another thing we are planning is the Breadwallet for Iphone. We have found a developer that is willing to help us overhaul the current breadwallet to implement Transfer Coin. Since we will be working from the Dash Breadwallet fork. We will be able to implement InstantX and Darksend transactions inside of the IOS wallet in the future. Our main concern is keeping the code safe and up to date. We do not want a bunch of useless features that are strung throughout the code, half of which doesnt even work. With all of the features that we release, you can be assured that time and effort will be put into testing each one of them.

TOP 5 SUPERNET SLACK CHATS audo I'm sure most people in crypto know/feel that there are huge problems in the world. Like locomb noted, there is such a great force trying to centralize everything, that anything to do with decentralization is met with hostility. Still, we must try. That's why projects like these are so important. I'm not sure what is the ultimate cause of all this... some short of human psychology perhaps. It's like there is a virus out there that stops people from thinking and to accept everything as it is given to them. An example that came to my mind was the Milgram experiment. Today people are unable to wrap their minds around how things such as Nazi Germany happened, and believe that it could not happen again, because we live in "freedom and democracy". One of the general assumptions is, that we live the peak of human civilization, meaning that we are wiser than ever and people have learned from past mistakes. People in general also believe to be highly educated, because they get a nice pay check, have a diploma and know what's going on in the TV news. I was of course just as everyone else. I'm not saying that I would now 'know it all' or be "enlightened", but at least I did admit my ignorance to myself some years ago. Only after that point I have begun to see some changes in my life, and I feel like there are some goals and meaning. In other words, I'm actively trying to educate myself, question my own actions and question other people's actions. I guess that's simply called thinking yourself. Something every man ought to do, and perhaps then and only then - we could see some changes and less problems.
