The Dalai Lama and a host of Nobel prize winners have joined actor Richard Gere for a conference aimed at righting the wrongs of modern humanity.
King Abdullah of Jordan is hosting the two-day meeting at the ancient desert city of Petra.
Delegates will discuss four key themes: terror and peace, economic development and poverty, health and environment, and education and media.

Would you like to be there? How would you solve the world’s terror problems? What would you do about poverty? North America seems to think that it has a health problem – how would you deal with the health of the rest of the world? And then there is education and the media, how would you propose to straighten that issue out?

Doesn’t it seem a little pretentious to think that they can do more than introduce the problems that they want to discuss in two days? Come to think of it I guess that we all know the problems so we could just dive right into the answers . . . which are . . . people

The world is full of people. Till we can change the nature of each individual person on earth how can we begin to alleviate the problems?

All the same I would like to be there.
