  1. Sean, my original comment disappeared into the blogsphere, so I hope it does not appear twice.:)

    This is the first time I have actually completely read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

    I must say that your essay provided greater clarity.

  2. Do you think universal human rights can ever exists in the true sense as long as humans live? :)

  3. At least there is something written down...
    Personally I have more faith in humanity and human men/women kind than many people on this earth..))
    But indeed Sean, I like your essay as well: some space left for anarchistic thoughts..)))

  4. Ardent,
    your vanished comment might share the fate of the declaration. Only a few will read it.
    Anyway, now you are part of the universal minority. :)

    And I am glad you did not only read my essai, but appreciate its ambitious content, the more as it was hard work to put in all experience I collected in two millennia.

    Nevin,
    the child in the man, the idealist would love to say 'Yes!', the realist, however, disillusioned by experience, laconically mutters: No.

    Hans,
    agreed. It's good 'at least there is something written down', and if it were to prove that paper is patient.
    Anyway, I wish everybody shared your optimism and tried his bit to fill the words with life.

    As for your final words: Thanks. And yes: There should always be space for some tiny friendly Anarchy atoms within the realm of Omnium. :)

    A.,
    welcome to you.
    And thanks for the link.
    Fascinating, indeed, isn't it? In June Professor Genzel got honoured with the Shaw Price for Astronomy.

    :) How could I not be interested, having an enthusiastic astro-physicist in the family who'd supply us with latest news.

    Apropos 'news': Did you check the Max-Planck-site? It leads you to all institutes. A scientific cosmos! :)
