"So much of how I think about this is the "idea" of a Commons in the good world ... that doesn't always exist. I want it to exist. I know that such thinking is ridiculous in the face of reality. But I keep at it, finding pockets of people I can call friends in a networked Common that does not have one home, nor should it. I know such metaphors fail as soon as you look closely. I cling to the friends and thinking partners anyway."

ReplyDeleteSocrates didn't mean it - he died rather than accept banishment.
