I’ve just written an article that starts from the doom-and-gloom position and ends up at generosity. That’s how I found this site. And I can see how being generous fits nicely into the capitalist, or any other, system. It’s not even new; we just need more of it.

How To be A Good Capitalist - 12 Nov 2009
This is Pokerbird’s profile page.
My favourite occupation is creative writing – mainly novels but the odd short story and movie too. Close behind is birding – wild birds, that is, and not bird watching nor twitching, although I am an avid lister. I also play a little Texas Holdem poker online.
Redditch is my present roosting site but I need more permanency. Bristol is a lure, having been my home for ten years, and may begin to complete an arc for me. My final resting place could see me back in Winchester where I grew up. It has an appeal after my globetrotting – well, mainly five years in the USA.
