    Where would you like to be when the ball drops?
    I would like to be somewhere in Africa that is far away from anything technological.

    Thought or idea you would like to see brought into the new millennium:
    That we are all dependent on one another and on the planet on which we live. And that we should make an effort to treat each other and this planet as we ourselves wish to be treated. Hopefully that treatment would include actions that are respectful, loving and caring.

    Thought or idea you would like to see left behind:
    Our intolerance for anything that is not just like us. And our inability to see the positive side of any given situation.
