Buckminster Fuller

Anyone who doesn’t know who this is should really start reading at this link, then read some of his work.
On the one hand, Bucky is a model of potential for those distopian pessimist such as myself. A man who actually believed that he could make changes, that there was a glimmer of hope for survival of our species.
On the other hand, many of the amazing ideas he had have not been given the appropriate amount of time and thought by the “leaders” of the “spaceship earth” (his term) Thus strengthening my prayers of doom I recite each night before sleep.
