In the romanian countryside there still exist small villages where
people get personalized colourized wooden tombstones; personalized
in sofar as the wood carver lived together with the person for
many years or even decades, so that the text reflects the living
of the person ("was known for loving the men", "could have lived
longer but unfortunately his own schnaps was the best", but in
real, living and soulful speech).
Then again i'm hoping for local fuel cells, wind and water mills,
solar cells, geothermics, to name a few, and hope the businesskids
start using Monopoly money.
