Gabe sent out a message that I believe is of critical import to everyone: Open Sourcing Discoveries.

With what we do, challenging TPTB and all, trying to get a tech to help restore some of the power to The People, we sometimes make discoveries of an amazing nature. As people, we all have bills to pay and, in envy of the power that tons of money tends to carry (i.e. in corporations and governments) we begin to imagine a life without stressing over every dollar.

This leads many to become secretive, jealously hoarding our discoveries.

I have one question to ask those of you who have such discoveries. That is "How can we change the planet if we think first of our own bottom line?"

It is my experience that we can do both. Earn a good living with our discoveries AND see the technologies are spread around the Globe.

I encourage you one and all to be willing to share what you have discovered. You needn't worry about the money because, if you've got something solid, you will be recognized as the Expert in the field and will earn a certain level of respect-and money-from your fellow citizens.

All while your discovery does what you originally intended: Make this planet a better place.

At least, that's what's happening for me.
