[snipped from GRB list]

I think it is time to start a discussion about our target audience with the new site.

After phase one of the new beta site is functioning, I wish to build new sections of the site that target corporations to specifically show how they can win in the GRB model. We need their support to make the ecocredit fly. We need serious technology partners, and this is why I have built a more corporate look to the new GRB.

Ole wished to include in the 'intro to the intro' page (now the home page):

'The rate of present money is based on Gross National Product that includes ALL types of economic activities, good and bad, and licenses usury, demands consumerism and ecocide and decreases Earth's capacity to support life.

Contrary to this, the rate of the GRB credit depends on the actual value of the natural resources and thereby inherently promotes environmental preservation and increase of natural resources.'

I like this for the intro (home) page. I also like questions-format because it makes people think about where they stand with their present currency system.

But I think we can't use terms like 'ecocide' because it carries a very negative connotation.

It should be our collective goal to take out all the negative language in the website so that everyone gets a good feeling about our product, even the bad guys of the old system. We need a place for everyone in the new system. The bad guys can use their wielding power in ways that promote positive envionment replenishment.

The new system is about forgiveness. Imagine all the demons of the world coming to God and asking forgiveness. These demons wish to change their ways, and God really wants to bring them into heaven. Of course a forgiving God would welcome them in, but under new terms of behavior. We need to act as forgiving agents and bring the 'demons' into our new system. Acceptance of our product, the ecocredit, will repair all the damage of the past actions of corporations.

Every national economy gets the forgiveness of debt with the ecocredit through re-capitalization. Initially penalizing corporations for doing their business will not attract their interest. We need to find a solution to show them how they win in the GRB model, but then they need to take active steps to avoid being penalized.
