We need a global citizens movement.

I am more of the mind that positive change has to start at every level from individual to inter-national, and that positive change at whatever level reinforces change at all levels.

Yes, please. Of course I do think InterMix has a role to play. If we could get several hundred people to try the "train of thought" idea I think we could kickstart the collective mind. Hmm... Kickstart...
"Train of thought" is where we have round after round of discussion decision periods, where the selected message from one of the five voices of humanity which receives the highest overall value is selected as the topic for the next round. Kickstart! Thank you Tom!
