Gainfully for who? For the society? I do not give a fuck for society, man.
I work too much for the money that I get. It is saturday, now, and I am not
at home. I am in this laboratory, doing a bullshitting job and writing 
bullshitting posts. So? I can get twice if a work for a corporation in USA.
I do not care about money, I like to have my freedom. Yes, I have little 
problems, to work with the physicist is B O R I N G! To deal with them is
B O R I N G! They only speak about fucking quarks and particles, they do 
not care about anything else. It is SAD for me to see many intelligent 
people around here, wasting their energy and all their time just to 
increase the world knowledge a little bit. Who gives a fuck on the world 
about more physics? The starving people in Somalia? The 140 kids killed in 
Chicago in one year? The Yugoslavians? Eh, who gives another fucking shit, 
NOW? Yes, now on the richest countries the average life is raised, thank
to the science. But, what about the *world* average life? I am not sure 
that it is a lot higher then 2000 years ago. Content-free. Yes, maybe, in 
many posts I have been content-free, I was just looking for fun. It seems 
to me that content-free is the way we have to be on the '90s. Nobody cares 
about anything, nobody speak anymore about society problems. Nobody but 
the NET people. But it looks like a zoo, I like it anyway, but it is VERY SAD, 
for me, to see that ONLY IN A WORLDWIDE NET IT IS POSSIBLE TO FIND PEOPLE 
THAT WONNA SPEAK ABOUT EVERYTHING, bullshit included. And that WE are not so 
many. I have been a student leader in Italy. I used to waste my time to try 
to improve my University, and, maybe, the society. I tryed to organize 
meetings with the students, togheter the other student leaders. Only few 
people used to come. The same thing happens in all the Italian 
universities. 24 years ago it was different. The people wanted to 
try to change something, maybe they made mistakes, but at least they tryed 
to do something. Now, it is sad, man, very sad. Everybody used to say "yes,
that's true, things do not work, but I have to study, I have to have fun".
And this in Italy, a country where the people use to speak a lot about 
politics. They have now only content-free arguments. So, let's have fun, I 
thought. Who cares, who gives a shit? They do not give a shit, I do not 
give a shit anymore. If this world is content-free, let's be content-free.
Maybe it will change, I hope soon. Maybe one way to start to change things 
is alt.flame. Maybe not. But at least, alt.flame sometime is a content-free, 
*FUN* folder.

Everybody is free to flame me about this. I do not give a shit.
