You forgot your [sarcasm] tags. ;) They may not notice.

Important enough for you to not say what it is you would need to "discuss". Eh? Who's profile would you of been looking at precisely? there's one or two. That's assuredly enough information to bait someone into infecting themselves with the malware embedded in the photograph and to cause people to email your bot to send them exploits in attachments/links. As the spam I was responding to is now absented, would a moderator be so kind as to also remove this post?

@Dirk Baeyens: No, thank YOU for the suggestion! ;) Cheers

AFAIK, that is the current situation, yes. No this doesn't make me feel uncomfortable. I don't like it, certainly, but not having been given any particular reason for distrust I am prepared to take things on face value and allow them to prove themselves. There's elections planned for June, but there's nothing to say this cannot be indefinitely postponed or proclaimed illegal. June isn't that far away on the scale of things to wait and find out - and ultimately if things don't look like they are moving in a direction you would feel comfortable then at that point you should definitely be able to distance yourself and will of "lost nothing" but a little time - which would mostly of been filled with other things really, anyway.

@nihylum: "first, 20 years old people are under age in some countries. (...) It's logical to keep it open. " I'm confused. You're saying 20 is under age, but then, you're saying to keep it open for any ages to vote - which would include children. What's the alternative you propose? Are you saying children and non-Asgardians could vote too? "20 is also an unusual unjustifiable age." Well, actually in Canada, 18 years old is considered legal adulthood, and thus individual decision making is recognised as legal, starting at this age, by the system. Canadians can vote if they're 18 or older. I wanted to use 18 but I know that in some countries the adulthood age might be set higher. 20 seems like a good, round number. Most people I know of that age are able to contemplate political ideas. "What people want, and that's logical too, is a logical, fair and future-ready set of laws. " Which a Constitution will bring. The set of laws must be very specific, and have legal effect, otherwise you'll open the door to loopholes and abuse of power. You can't just write a law saying "there shall not be any abuse of power", it's too abstract of a concept. You need a Constitution to explain plainly what the leaders can and cannot do, and what will happen if they break the law. Remember also that the Constitution can be amended. I don't think we can pretend to know what the future will be like, nor what will be good for the people 100 or 1,000 years from now. This is why Article 5 P 3 is there - it makes the Constitution editable. It's not static - whatever the future holds, modifications can be applied unto the Constitution so that it evolves accordingly to the need of the people. "You confound peaceful with defenseless." I'm not the one confounding things. As I keep on saying, I left the creation of a military legal in the Constitution in the first place. Defence forces are not prohibited in the Draft (what is prohibited, however, is a military turning against its people, or enrolling people as soldiers against their will). "We should also don't forget that Asgardians are a collection of people with origins from existing and recognized nations. So we should understand Asgardia as a global nation from my point of view." Good point. I share this point of view. "What ever results as the constitution, magna carta or what ever we named it later: It should be representative, easy to read, easy to understand and exact but not prejudging." I totally agree. Finding a perfect balance of all these qualities, however, is not an easy task.

@markjcooke: Yes, I'm in the process of going through those six pages, some good arguments there to consider. I'm also in the process of editing the draft to include those eminent domain & asset forfeiture bans you and Rick D have suggested. :)

Your training program is intriguing. Have you read suggestions on creating classes, found here: When creating a learning environment, it is important to consider your theoretical approach and the praxis. Do you think what you are doing is truly new? Make sure you have researched what others have done in this type of training so you do not repeat their mistakes. Also, what is the "scope and sequence" of your training program? How will achievement of objectives be measured in a valid an d reliable way?

Honestly money holds no place in my heart at all, if it benefitd us that should be a good motive alone, not money. We should reach generations to come money isn't a value, might need a value trade somewhere but money isn't important. Me personally want to make a money worth alot so when needed we can use it, but on asgardia we don't use it. No greed+ No selfishness= decent human being with no object obsession.

You don't throw away big chunks, you recycle the single part that no longer is as capable as replacements. As opposed to the whole car, or have to heavily modify as the part you're fitting was never intended to go where you're sticking it. The financial incentive is if you're not able to keep up with the competition's product, you're not making any sales. And competitors are already moving into this thinking.

Throwing my two cents in... While BC is a great location for west coast it is a bit far for people in Saskatoon and Regina... I would say Edmonton or Calgary but I'm from Alberta so I'm biased. Also what I mean by that is to have an embassy like Place not a second embassy... we don't need two.
