Democratic Process

It's easy for me to just sit around saying how we should all listen to each other without putting my money where my mouth is, although I have no money. So I have opened the floor of this blog to twelve other people who I know, to write about how to change the world or things they have noticed or whatever. I will let them introduce themselves if they choose to. I don't know how many will take me up on the offer, but I am terribly curious and I do need a break. I'll still write, but I am so tired of being the only one here. So here they are, whatever they say I'm sure will be important because they all have interesting stories behind themselves. They can fill in the gaps that I have missed.
