couldn't agree with you more than I am agreeing with you. spot on. everyone needs some sense of power over the other, as silly as you say it is. and being open and free is frowned upon.

The old competition Vs collaboration theory.
You timed it to the moon landing 40 years on... which reminds me how the Russians beat the Yankees into manned space flight Yuri Gagarin beat Alan Shepard by a few weeks (Apr 12, 1961 Vs May o5 1961) btw, anybody heard of Alan?
The Yanks pulled one back with Manned moon missions.
The Russians stole the Concorde design and flew out these kerosine-burning planes first!
Forget outer space, talk about the humble telephone... Graham Bell beat another poor soul (forget his name...see??) to the Patents office by minutes. MINUTES! And walked away into history and Quiz trivia books...forever.
And speaking of trivia... the lowest form of such competitive/let-the-other-guy-knock-himself-out s#it... it all stems from one basic human trait.
Selfishness...
tinged with a perverse pleasure of seeing another soul suffer.
Could go on... but I'll spare you the suffering. Here's to sharing and caring...

Organized religion has always thrived on this disgusting principle. Renaissance in Europe cured the problem to an extant in the medieval times.
Modern day means like Open source / Blogs(with this last post of yours included) are bringing in the Renaissance of our times. And its great! Enjoyed the post.
