save the world
another noble goal... 22 months ago

and I will keep doing my part to work towards it, but this really has to be a group effort (I am heartened by the fact that over 1000 people here on 43T have this as a goal). My feelings can best be summed up by this excerpt from Depeche Mode’s song, “New Dress”

You may change a vote
And when you change a vote
You may change the world
