		<description><![CDATA[I want you to cast your mind back to a time when people made things in exchange for other people’s money... when you wanted a loaf, a horseshoe, a barrel and an arrow, you paid a visit to Messrs Baker, Smith, Cooper and Fletcher.

Go to a company called that now and you're more likely to find it full of lawyers.  Taking a loaf, horseshoe, barrel or arrow without payment or permission was theft, pure and simple. <a href="http://sixwordideas.com/the-day-we-all-became-thieves/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[David Cameron: "Why do we want a system used by only Australia, Fiji and Papua New Guinea?" He's implying here that because only a few countries use it, it must be a bad thing.  Hmm... let's look for a system with more support.   Totalitarian dictatorship! <a href="http://sixwordideas.com/maybe-david-cameron-wants-a-dictatorship/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At the time of writing the Amazon Kindle edition of Sarah Pain's book "Going Rogue" is selling for $14.09 and the hardback edition for $13.50.  Amazon's capitulation to Macmillan over selling eBooks (at a loss!) for $9.99 as a Kindle loss leader is a disaster for the customer and the planet...and all because the currently mythical iPad will apparently let publishers charge more... cheers Steve. <a href="http://sixwordideas.com/make-digital-books-cheaper-than-paper/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I'm not only talking about religion here I'm talking about everything.  The TV program QI (Quite Interesting) has a round called "General Ignorance" where they ask questions you think you know the answer to but virtually every "common knowledge" answer turns out to be either completely untrue, wildly inaccurate or superseded by the progress of human knowledge. <a href="http://sixwordideas.com/belief-what-trusted-people-tell-you/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
