The problem with solving the worlds problems is that no matter what may be suggested, there will always be crooked politicians who want to make money on everything that they do. Most of the wars, etc. are caused by men who make money one way or another with some country or another. Just as with our own civil war, and it was not over slaverly, the northern money lords tried to impost restrictions on the southern people who were getting rich off their crops and tried to take it away from them. Only after a year or two did they adopt the policy that it was to free the slaves even though most of the slaves that were held in the northern states were not freed for many years after. Yes, there is a lot of talent here and it has a better chance of solving the chess puzzle than it does in solving the worlds problems. IMHO Bill
