    Wow! What an interesting idea. i liked the name of this group below, - The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists.
    it brings joy to my heart to see people working on such ideas. Yay!

    “If [the populous] were not mentally deficient, they would of their own accord have swept away this silly system [of work, money and status] long ago.”

    LOL! That's an awesome quote. Thanks, Audge. Luckily I subscribed and we'll have all the zines at home!

    I agree with the last two comments. If the Escapologist is anywhere near as good as those shoes, I'm in for life.

    I spent hours going through Lord Whimsy's site after seeing this post. Fascinating person to say the least. By the end of my visit I found myself on Amazon ordering his book. Thanks for sharing.
