It seems the three-day trip I made to the Moon (is it the 16th? nah, more like the 17th) put some ideas in order in my busy head.

This, or the complete disconnection from the Sphere is really making me think clearer. Without all these productivity killers… I mean, yes, I can always put myself in disconnected mode, even if I’m in, but oh, all this silence… is for REAL.

I’m feeling like a Reclusive, lol. Yes, imagine that: in the 22nd century, there are still people who want to live without any connection to the central knowledge of the entire humankind. Can you believe that?

But I digress. I was thinking at the way geographic (or, in this case, spatial) isolation can mold the human spirit. There are some 16-18 million Reclusives on Earth, so only 0.2% of the entire human population here. But on the Moon, there are an amazing 15-16.000 who decided to disconnect themselves mentally from the KS, and are actually only accesing it manually and visually, the good old fashion way. A good 2% of the entire Moon population, that is!

I was forced to do so some three days ago, and if my nausea slowly fades away, I’m still feeling blind. But what kills me the most is the hunger for information. Having to input queries manually and to browse on the KS visually is such a waste of time.

That should help me understand these guys, and it seems I will be forced to do more Earth-Moon trips soon, so…

(maybe I’ll wear a robe too )
