Yes, I was working with that from a previous time you posted it, actually.

I got to end of chapter 3 and beginning of chapter 4, goal search, and I got stuck at the same place as always. But thanks for posting it.

My further thoughts below, not particularly directed at you, just what comes at the moment.

You know, I took a narcissism test. Despite agreeing that "The world would be a better place if I were in charge," I scored well below average non-narcissists for narcissism. I would just like to change the whole world, and that's way beyond not realistic. And some incremental change on some tiny subset - I'm sorry, every little bit does not make a difference if the overall trajectory is still crashing into a mountain. So you crash into this rockface or that one. Oh, well, you tried. Just doesn't excite me in the least. I don't see any significant way to make a difference that I care about.

No one can change the world. The world is what it is based on the people in it; people dominate the world today.
