[NetBehaviour] Not quite so dismal

[Alan Sondheim]

Hi Ana and Edward,

I think your idea is obviously praiseworthy but it's not going to happen; 
what's necessary is real political solutions. In the U.S. I'd love to put 
the bankers and politicians (for the most part) behind bars, I'd love to 
do a lot of things - but that's not the way humans work. It's really 
enlightening that people themselves are willing to take people in of 
course - that sounds wonderful. We don't have that generosity here...
