Hello ATS.

When I read this piece I completely agreed. I never heard of it till now and I think it is a very good thing as a counterpart of the gathering of elitist.
I also believe the world could be a much better, safer, healthier and more joyful place. I guess some people just don't want that to happen. I think with such initiatives and many others and hopefully many more to come soon, we will have a great world not to far from now. Just some feeling.

Peace Vincent
