W. Davis: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World. Stewart Brand: Wade in a sense is taking eight lectures that he did for the Massy lectures in Canada this year last year and if you want the long version the good version of what he does tonight its all in a book called interestingly enough The Wayfinders: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World and that will be outside and Wade will be outside signing those books after the talk. Field scientists lead the most exciting lives there are I think I optically find the biologists but I noticed the series its fond of anthropologists who come back with field of stories to tell about what being human really means we have had Daniel Evert who has worked in Latin America the amazing things about language; Steven Lancing working in Bali; Jerry Diamond working in Italy and partly in Guinea first on birds then on people.
Wade Davis has probably been to all of those places and ingested whatever they have to offer. Not only lived to tell the tale but he has a hell of a tale to tell.

What follows is the current level of understanding I have been able to piece together regarding data, information, knowledge, and wisdom. Ralph Waldo Emerson : Take Action!!
