You like your committee of cells that can't think. I don't think a committee can all concentrate on one plan. Look how governments work, all helter skelter. A single purposed mind does the best creating.-Caught ya there. It IS true that "design by committee" doesn't usually work, but that's not the only form of crowd participation. Take open-source software like Linux. An incredibly complex piece of sophisticated software, built and maintained by a group of dedicated volunteers. A strong quality argument is made for open-source because while a corporation might only be able to have 1 or 2 experts on some esoteric concept, the world itself has many. -This argument also applies to the article quality on Wikipedia. Great, brilliant minds can absolutely work together for a single common cause. -Government is inefficient because there is no single common goal, ESPECIALLY in republics where everyone has their own set of wants and needs, sometimes two different groups have mutually exclusive wants and needs. What do yo do then?

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
