A last shot and it is at these two statements - I will remind all that 
the first statement holds true to the full political spectrum - if we 
do not change our personal politic  -- and I do not mean comply  to 
some politically correct behaviorist model - but question ourselves as 
hard as we might question those we perceive as other  -- the art we 
make - the culture we make can never be a source of inspiration but 
only reiteration of that which we already know -- in ever more 
efficient and standardized forms -- which is another definition of 
technology
