Free Will Astrology - Libra

Physicist Jonathan Huebner says scientists are running out of bright ideas. "We are approaching the point when the rate of innovation is the same as it was during the Dark Ages," he wrote in New Scientist magazine. That argument seems wrong to me. Everyone I know is awash in the changes unleashed by new technology. But just in case his theory has any merit, I call on Libran inventors to begin reversing the trend. After all, you're now at the height of your ability to generate constructive novelty. So are all the rest of you Librans, for that matter. Get out there and unleash a flurry of good changes.

Bah. Innovation for the sake of innovation has brought us nothing but grief. For every problem technological innovation solves it creates two more. The longest continuous culture on Earth lasted for over 10,000 years because they established a traditional society that struck a balance with their environment and saw little need for innovation. The Australian Aboriginals recently called it quits; citing the encroachment of modern technology.

This innovative culture won't make it another hundred years; unless it changes its ways and recovers traditional lore before it is lost. So there's my vote on what to change. :)

Morwenna said you had posted some Pennsic pix (including one of me), but I can't see them. Friend me please?

Everyone may be awash in the changes, but sometimes I have to wonder if the changes unleashed are as world-rattling significant as is suggested. Of course, this line of thinking would undoubtedly turn me to the "bread and circuses" mindset. Instead, I will use this suggested "height of my ability to generate constructive novelty" to perhaps better find peace among the changes already occuring. Perhaps I will have to learn something new and perhaps I will have to construct something. But I'm not one to advocate change simply because it it hasn't hit everyone around me or myself in the face in the last couple of days. That way leads to madness. *grin*

we need to finish digesting the innovations we already have before trying to force more. Deal with what we have, and when something new is needed, it will appear.

Neccesity is the mother of invention. If there's no need, artificially forcing change will result in more harm than good.
