A little soul searching truth here.
The Field of Planetary Development in truth is a concept far ahead of its time presently upon or world so thusly it will in all fact take several generations before anything tangible begins to become manifested out of the ideological constructs that in time over the next few years loosely speaking will be laid down at some points cohesively and at some points like a patch work of folly. At this point the field of Planetary Development is understaffed and woefully under funded (any help here of coarse would be well appreciated) there is myself and one or two others in my immediate domain that seem to have the full grasp of what in essence I am trying to do here with the concept of and the creation of the Field of Planetary Development. Oh, keep in mind I do a full time job in geology which pays the bills and then during the nights and weekends I continue on with Planetary Development. Right now I do reading, research and I am beginning as I have mentioned else where on this website that I am slowly gearing up for the first publication of material on the Field sometime several years hence (there is much to consider here) otherwise a majority of the work so far has been writing on blogs and such to other organizations that have at least some kinship with the ideology stimulating debate on the issue as much as possible with such groups like a brand new wing of The SETI Society go to www.setisociety.org a Google Group that is seriously looking at life or civilization possibilities elsewhere in our galaxy, but who are looking at these civilizations in a whole system way. One growing consortium of organizations and interest I have run into out there on the blogs is one called www.wiserearth.org where they are connecting up as a point of contact with the full spectrum of human fields and interest with one of the particular groups on wiserearth looking at planetary or whole system what they call "Global Governance" and in my view this is one equal or compliment measure to Planetary Development. Other organizations that I keep an eye on are those like The Field of Social Artistry that is beginning to close in on sociologic or anthropologic issues looking at our civilization as a whole system instead of just parts. It is Planetary Development on the social frontiers and Social Artistry certainly gets the credit here for founding this aspect of things, they are ahead of my curve on many things. A note - Social Artistry is gearing up for the 2008 summer session where I assume they may look at just how we as a civilization can begin a process of system wide social change and at least some type of assessment as to its overall effectiveness. For those who may have an interest in Social Artistry and you want to check it out for yourself go to www.socialartistry.org .
Also-if there are others out there that have the same whole system or even a long term view of things please feel free to give a jingle here for as the Field of Planetary Development grows we are and shall remain open to constructive suggestions or criticisms. I want all of our worlds citizens to know that no one owns the thing, it belongs to not one individual not even myself, it belongs to the entirety of the people of our world as our own Field of Planetary Development with all of the vested rights and responsibilities therein.

Look, over time (the last twenty years) I have perused across the realm of web sites, Blogs, Periodicals and telecast that have pronounced both new and old age spiritualism with great visions of utopian societies and we as of yet are no where near realizing that dream. There is a reason for this people and that reason comes down to one word and that word is "WORK". Yes, I am afraid that this is the one word that stands in the way of any utopia we as a civilization may ever dream up for ourselves. If we want it we are going to have to work for it as a whole and do so with a sense of voracity developing to a level we have never seen before. So what I now offer and what a mere few others have to date who are on Planetary Development's network are engaged in is the opening salvo of what I term "pounding salt" for the craftsmanship of a new civilization in fact, not fiction like so many theories out there running around over the years.
So here is the deal Planetary Development's Network of operations "is open to all comers who are willing to (pound salt with all voracity) for the creation of a new civilization and the establishment of new paradigms of thought but most importantly actions to resolve and enhance the human condition at large". Right now there are scores of openings on the system which exist for the express purpose of pounding salt as expeditiously as posable on both the great and small issues of our world. So if there are people out there that would like to join in with others on a platform designed to pound salt on world issues then welcome aboard. There is one thing I highly suggest that the use of profanity is curtailed because it does not speak well of you the writer and the systems use as well, I mean if things are such that you feel a compulsion for profanity than the use of your private e-mail will do just fine so you have no need to jump on the system here to do that. And besides if you cannot seem to express yourself without the use of profane words than I strongly suggest that you go and get a dictionary and learn how to use it and you will find new ways to communicate without the use of profanity, even more effectively so believe it or not. This is what I did and if you really look over all aspects of this website you will find no profanity used anywhere along any discourse along the way and if I can do it, well than anyone can do it including yourself.
Know this as well when you come on board the Network know form that point forward that you are not alone in the process and that there are others like yourself engaged maybe not in the same field of interest that you are but engaged non the less and in that there is camaraderie and a solidarity of purpose. And, as things go along you will be able to post your work out on a special forum (as of 12/13/07 I have closed down what was the "Message Board" because of undue spam out on the board this is a temporary move while I work on what may be its replacement as I look into a PHPBB forum with administrative functions it may take a month or two to properly set it up until then go to the Word Press Blog I have installed out on the old Blog site) which will be created here on the website for everyone's viewing. So don't worry we will all be together to support each other on this fantastic venture called Planetary Development - Our Own.
