I suppose it isn't surprising here in the gemisphere. Sparked up a lot of related thoughts I've been mulling over that seem appropriate for this space. As time goes on, I find myself reflecting more and more on the subjects of permaculture, accessibility, how technology meets humanity (and doesn't),...
