    Hi, shipmate. That is a good plan, but I don't think the world is ready for us.

    You would have to have some pretty good empirical sources of knowledge to start with but even then how far would you get, for instance, trying to teach evolutionary knowledge to creationists?

    I love that song deeply, and not because of Coke commercials! ;)  I don't think I can listen without crying right now.

    That's very touching. I have music that does things like that to me, too.

    I really like the song, too. And that entire album here by The New Seekers is good for me, too.  :)  That's the album cover.

    A 13-hours-long work day for me.

    I dropped in for a sec, and saw your reply. Cool. Thanks for sharing! :)

    No, only the really important things.

    You know... the good stuff that we all must know on some level. 

    Be kind and compassionate to one another and to the earth. What else is there?

    Right. And grammar, of course.

    The sum total of all that can be known is more than one brain can handle.

    If you were to learn everything there is to know here on Earth, then which world have you determined to be lacking this knowledge, and how do you propose to execute your plan without imputing ignorance, thus causing offense.

    Hello r:

    I will teach people that the sky is blue.  If that offends somebody, and it surly will, so be it.  The JOB is to teach - NOT to insure that people learn.

    To help teach the world knowledge you might have to encourage people first of all, to exercise their brain and be suitably fit to separate knowledge from misinformation.
