Beginnings

This is my first post on my first blog. We shall see where it leads. At the moment I have little direction. However, I do have a few ideas. First, I would like this to be a place where I can talk a bit about world issues and perhaps connect people to useful sources of information. Second, I hope that this can be a place where interesting ideas about how to exist in this world and move into the future can be exchanged. That's a tall order I know. So I will just start slow and see where things lead.
