I am away. Ground Zero is not my cup of tea for the waning years.

Accident of birth has failed as a standard as has education under the current system. I don't believe in wealth be it cash or land as a standard.

A voluntarily demonstrated demonstration and public witnessed participation in the responsibilities of citizenship preceding full rights of citizenship would be as rough beginning. With no 'isms involved. Service in voluntary service in certain institutions such as national defense, internal defense (military and police and fire/rescue/ departments) comes immediately to mind The already clearly stated reasons for government to exist without the artificial limits but that is not all.

A clearly understood demonstration of applied citizenship responsibilitres in a manner suggested by civics is another way of putting it.

Attending college or university is not other than if certain courses were undertaken with success. Heinlein's standby of History and Moral Philosophy of course.

Allosaur is correct in his includsion of that First Amendment incident. The mere fact we witnessed that and the shameful use of elected officials to supprt their highly suspect pet beliefs such as global warming is proof positive the American Public as a qualified voting pool is highly suspect. Calling for incarcerration, fines, mandatory time in re-education camps is for certain sure evidence of their inability to either vote or hold public office.

Why? Need you ask? It's fascist on it's face isn't that enough reason?

As for scientists to bring it back on track. Why should they have to hide their research results? Why are they hiding their research results. Proving something doesn't work is after all a step on the way of finding something that does work.

There are at least two companies in Cottage Grove, Oregon alone that deal in the seeds yu wish to use. Google 'Non-genetically altered seeds for articles on NonGMO, purchasing the seeds themselves, how to keep Monsanto out of your garden, and a variety of other subjects.'

On your part it requires some growing space and in that respect a green house operation is a one useful way and hot wall growing in the south west or south.

Another research area is where to buy Non-altered bulk foods of the type you can't readily grow with a lot acreage.

In the more enlightened areas of the country regular shows with booths and displays cater to this life style.

One area they cover is backyard gardening. I couldn't remember the exact name but one to look out covers hot weather areas such as Arizona. The lady had to do it on city water a problem in itself but made a hot wall growing area. the part with a fence or house wall that attracts the most heat. Four by four posts set a foot or so away from the wall with four to five sort of net hammock lined with plastic sheeting and filled with dirt. Holes punctured in the bottom of the plastic and the water would drip through and down hammock to hammock ending up at ground level. The rest of the garden used the drip tube fittings. The plants arrayed in tiers featured vine tomatoes that draped as they grew.

All of this stuff has been around for a number of decades. A little research and don't forget Kindle has some for no charge or 99 cent fee to purchase the various books. We used to rely on Mother Earth and Backwoods Home but now it's all over the internet

As you wish....

What kind of sailing? I'm a full time liveaboard with a heavily modified Westerly Berwick 32

Like I said the Consitution and the Republic are worth fighting for. these mutts are just garbage.

Walking on Water? As we get older the cartilege between the vertebrae shrinks. I've lost 2" in height from that. I just keep doing stretching exerecises but the signs are slowly mounting that I'm no longer 18

What brought religion into this? Smiley Face

POV has varied meanings the one copied from a TV show is merely the latest. Goat, Grant Turismo Omologato, Great Teacher Omozata, Gate 'Turn Off thyristor and Gran Turismo Over,

Back to POV i'ts asfilming method the first example given was filming one's own gratification

All examples of the need for being exact and always at the first use adding the meaning of the slang or acronym lest a reader think you are goating. AR when used with AR-15 or AR7 means Armalite not Automatic rifle.

Thus the exactness of objectivism is served, new and younger people are sent off with a n expansiion in their fund of knowledge and do not mistake the intent especially if it was a form of Geo-stationaryTerrestial Orbit or simply filming oneself which seemed to fit that particular boob toob offering.

Short version it's common politeness.

True butr then I would have written it as POV Privately Owned Vehicle from the beginning. Someone else would, after checking context have made mentioned of alternate uses of the three initials. Everyone would have gained. for exampel An AR-15 (Armalite Model 15) was adopted by the US Army as the M-16 (
Model 16 rifle while the inventor, (Eugene Stone)'s AR-10 in caliber 7.62mm) was adopted only by US Navy SEAL ((SeaAirLand) Teams commonly called the Stoner System. The .22 caliber AR7 is the survival rifle version used by the US Air Force. Thus no one especially newer and younger readers would walk away thinking AR7 meant an automatic rifle used by Sean Connery where it was claimed to be a .25 caliber.)

Not everiyone is cognizant of all the nomenclature, abbreviations and slang of different fields of study.

POV is a very recent usage based on some TV show or another and listed more often than not as slang instead of acronym where it is common to millions of those who served in the military as I Love 'My Car' as a tribute to Queen.

It is very useful in one legitimate defintiton used in filming.

There I have now expanded my knowledge base instead of wondering what kind of Californio is this supposed to be.
