That’s a photo of me texted to me by the ex-cop driver who took me to the Vancouver Badminton Meetup. I was in town for the fancy elite conference (which was great) but I love escaping to meet local people. (at Vancouver, British Columbia)
“But today conversation pits are objects of fascination, relics of a time when living space was oriented not around a wall-sized flat screen and portable computers, but around looking at and socializing with other human beings in real life. If we want to get back to some actual face-to-face time, what better way to do it than in a cushioned burrow designed to host an intimate gathering?”

We are the music makers. And we are the dreamers of dreams.
For the first time in human history, we can keep our eyes on our accounts at all times. And train others to do same
Who’s “we”?
“Here everybody has a neighbor
Everybody has a friend
Everybody has a reason to begin again
My father said Son, we’re lucky in this town,
It’s a beautiful place to be born.
It just wraps its arms around you,
Nobody crowds you and nobody goes it alone…
It’s gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home”– Bruce Springsteen https://youtu.be/cVB5ZHftWuQ?t=1m30s
