My dad was in the army. World War II. He got his college education from the army. After World War II he became an insurance salesman. Really I didn't know my dad very well. He and my mother split up after the war. I was raised by my maternal grandmother and grandfather and by my mother.

I have never been a material girl. My father always told me never to love anything that cannot love you back.

I continue to meet people who have had their Web pages hijacked their browsers corrupted in some cases their children exposed to inappropriate material from these dangerous programs hidden in their family computers.

There is no roles. No one is keeping any roles. The drummer is also answering everybody and everything. So it is a constant conversation and communication between musicians on an extremely high level with extremely valuable material motifs and melodies.

The thing that I've always been slightly frustrated with was that the idea of a CD is kind of confined to a material possession that you can put on a shelf. And the idea of music for me is always about both the communication and the sharing of content. And so the interactive part is missing.

Civilization grew in the beginning from the minute that we had communication - particularly communication by sea that enabled people to get inspiration and ideas from each other and to exchange basic raw materials.

The new artists coming through were very materialistic and Hollywood not so engaged in communication.

This great though disastrous culture can only change as we begin to stand off and see... the inveterate materialism which has become the model for cultures around the world.

Desperation is the raw material of drastic change. Only those who can leave behind everything they have ever believed in can hope to escape.

But once you have satisfied your material needs which I think every wealth creator should - the house the car the plane the boat - what comes next?
