Carla:
You're so crude.
Teddy:
Wow, I feel like I'm in a gauntlet. Well, anyway. It's really useful. OR Books has put out a pocket edition. There's also a great strategy card deck that comes with it and is hip-ly inspiring. The cards contain mini-debates -- kinds like the de Bono. In one section, titled "The Problem in the World Around Us," an argument is proposed: A corrupt society produces corrupt people; we must fix the world first. The card answers:
Lots of a**holes and hypocrites have done wonders for the world. Personal change does not equal political change. No matter how many meditation retreats we go on (or how much we recycle), polluters will keep poisoning poor communities unless they are stopped by concerted political action. As individuals, we're all in some ways flawed, but that's no reason not to work together to change the world. Let's start now, a**holes!
Funny too!
Joy:

Richard:
He died in some Parisian gutter.
Tony:
He's another one.
Me:
Thanks, Teddy.
