"Conversation. What is it? A Mystery! It's the art of never seeming bored, of touching everything with interest, of pleasing with trifles, of being fascinating with nothing at all. How do we define this lively darting about with words, of hitting them back and forth, this sort of brief smile of ideas which should be conversation?" Guy de Maupassant

Village of Creative Warriors

My friend Avi has updated his Ryze page - a neat creative idea and a wonderful underlying theme - of building a village of creative warriors - a non-hierarchical work environment and society - an interconnected, interdependent unit. 

Here's the beginning ... read more at his page :

"The year...2004 A.D. The world is occupied by neo-Romans. All? Not quite!

A village inhabited by indomitable Gauls is holding out, strong as ever, against the invader. Life is not easy for the Roman legionaries stationed in the fortified camps of Adnauseam, Delirium, Hierarchium and Opprobrium...The Romans, itís said, gave the world civilization. Among the benefits, it passed on were systems, structures...and hierarchies...as the winning concepts of human operation.

The world, ever since, has had not much scope for warriors! No longer were there Uptoantix, Justforkix, Polyphonix...there was only posts. Now one was a legionnaire, Centurian, Legatus, Tribunus, General etc...and man swapped individuality for posts!

The Garrison tents have given way to factory floors...and factory floors made way to cubicles. In these Modern Times, people were told to be better nut twisters and button pushers...specialists!........................"

It was easy to spot me in his list of creative warriors :):) - he calls me Blogqualitatrix - the dream chaser, who leads the charge of dream chasers !
