I think there are also many people who just don’t really think about this stuff, but once they’ll see it articulated, they would say “That’s actually an interesting idea, i should try”.

That makes all the sense in the world to me, Dima.

I can see you point. It makes perfect sense. The only thing i could probably add to it is that what you describe are the extremes, and it seems to me that there are many people in between those two. I am talking about those people who would do it if offered a chance, but would probably postpone it forever if they had to do it on their own. I think there are also many people who just don't really think about this stuff, but once they'll see it articulated, they would say "That's actually an interesting idea, i should try". I guess there are more prototypes of people in between (and frankly i probably see myself as one of them :) Does it make sense? Thank you Rick!

I'm not sure if the Commfree Day is a good idea or not. The issue is one of balance. The people who may conceivably benefit from it, won't do it. The people who will do it, don't need it. Does that make sense to you? Hi Dima,

I am following this "media consumption diet" thread and am trying to suggest an idea of a Commfree Day - one day every month to be spent away from media and information technology. I have a post with more explanation about it and will be glad to hear what you and others think about it: http://thinkmacro.wordpress.com/2007/07/08/commfree-day/ Thanks! Hey!

Maybe I have gotten off focus. I do have one more I've promised, though. I don't know why, but there seem to be an awfully lot floating around right now. You know you’re right, Joe.

I can see your point of the sharing some little known facts with readers, but I think a meme should be relevant to the overall Theme of the Blog. And passing on links is important in order to expand the virtual universe. However, that being the case, shouldn't You pass it on? :-) Kidding. ;-) Hey Rick,
