The Long Now Foundation and Yes Men Fix the World. 
The Long Now Foundation is an organization formed in 1996 focused on long-term slower/better thinking, as a contrast to our current standard of faster/cheaper thinking.

They are here to help fix the world.

Here is a link to their seminars trailer:

Speaking about fixing the world, if you are a torrenter, you probably have noticed in the last couple weeks advertisements for Yes Men's free torrent movie.

Essentially hackers of the socio-economic system that are "using the system to change the system."

humans dealing with oil spill not using their heads. 
what lunacy evokes burning of unsustained "energy"?
what about in a panic, introducing possibly untested foreign bacteria in the ocean.

if "ownership" of the oil was given up, this problem would already be solved. how many bathtubs could you fill with old black gold? how many people out of jobs in new orleans with the craft for entrepereurship?

its a new economy .. for as long as it lasts.

ok gotta go....
