Hi everybody. Here's wishing you all a Happy New Year. The World Question Centre run by Edge has posed its annual question to a galaxy of intelligent persons. The 2007 Question is: What are you optimistic about? The contributors include, among others, Daniel C Dennett, Daniel Goleman and Steven Pinker. The philosopher Daniel C Dennett, for instance, is optimistic about The Evaporation of the Powerful Mystique of Religion.

"Fantastically stimulating...It's like the crack cocaine of the thinking world.... Once you start, you can't stop thinking about that question."
— BBC Radio 4 (2005)

Thank you dev, its been aprt of so many conversations. Esp after the fifth drink;)
Right you are sunil. Only philosophers and poets can understand the words spoken after the fifth drink has been poured down the hatch:)))
I think of these things, but dont always articulate them... without any drinks..( No point exaggerating my own dysfunctionalities)
Heartening to know others deal with similar Qs, with or without alcohol
