That Italian countryside sounds quite nice to me.

The incident that I witnessed was a crime of passion, as one person was pushed into a rage against another individual ending in tragic violence. Any kind of violent death or murder was a new thing for us back then, unless it was seen on the TV, we never thought of such things before that.

Here, our existing organic social system is hobbled by the public school system, instead of being enhanced by it. I keep on creating this future (wait 'til you see it!) where communities create local learning groups using online resources, where any income bracket can become educated within their own communities. The best teachers would be rewarded directly by whole communities pooling their money into these private groups, and the traditionally underpaid teachers may find themselves well paid and appreciated for their work.
