This globally popular educational and research website (stolen from www.12-12-12.org) lists every national and international problem in the world in a rather unusual and entertaining way, so remember to bookmark www.harryrings.org in your favourites folder! For the record: Harry Potbelly Lord of the Onion Rings has decided to take over the World because it is in a mess. He has decreed that by December 12^th 2012 there will be global peace and no more poverty. Stop doing what you were going to do today and read on.................

Harry Potbelly Lord of the Onion Rings as Director of the Human Race and Manager Planet Earth commands and Andronicos "The Cynic" responds as follows.........

The 12-12-12 initiative and this book is not about personal morality issues. I leave that to families, tribal cultures, individual experience, tribal customs, spiritual beliefs and personal value judgements.

The teaching of the consensus of tribal opinion of what is right and wrong must be taught at home and at school though. But that is not enough. I direct older children be taught inter-tribal morality issues as part of history classes. Why it was wrong for so and so to have done such and such.

Educating teens in this way, yet keeping very controversial regional or religious issues outside of the school agenda, will help these older ones understand tribal morality and tribal ethics and their do's and don'ts.

Ponder............
It will take an average person 12 hours to read and understand the contents of this website and listen to 'The Speech'. Is one hour a day for 12 days too long? Why don't you email the www.12-12-12.org link to 12 of your friends and discuss their opinions in 12 days time? Maybe the 7th person in your email chain can break the secret code and the 12th person, may hold the key to World Peace. Are you or someone in your family the 7th or 12th person?
