Give1Get1 revenues were approximately $40 Million.  A listening
organization could have (and would have) taken a portion of that
surprisingly clairvoyant learning moment into its soul, divining its
community purpise, rather than banking it.

Nobody's saying the road less traveled would have been cake (I hope) as
many of the same Technocracy First / Human Education Later mistakes were
bound to happen, as we can see today in Wikipedia's leadership power
vacuum, some of us never learn naturally :)

But 8 years later, Tony Anderson is 100% correct: an entirely different
road was right there in front of us, if we'd chosen to deliberate together,
in a united voice...
