At this point I can also tell you that I am in early discussions with a fellow who wrote the bulk of the constitution for a certain formerly war-torn nation and that I am putting together a plan that we believe will set in motion those things that ought to happen over the next decade. Those who would like to be involved should let me know and also quietly spread the word.

I composed a post in the 'discussion and debate' forum of
somethingawful.com, where I get most of my news and information. I
ask that you take the time to read it, I welcome any feedback, and -
if you believe pursuing this is in your best interest - to participate
in spreading the word. Here's the link:

Some discussion follows. I am pushing this idea with everyone I have
any connection with, on any forum in which I have regularly
participated. I do not expect success; but cynicism is no reason not
to try. And if I'm going to try, I'm going all-out.
Thanks for your time,
Consensus
