Bellerophon symbol, variation 7 jonath.co.uk

I read about this in some newsgroup somewhere (perhaps it was alt.politics.british), and I think I alluded to this in a previous entry somewhere, but I wasn't aware it was a fully fledged Danny Wallace (who you may recall working with Dave Gorman to find more Dave Gorman's) project. I think in a nut-shell:

You, the joinee, are encouraged to undertake Random Acts of Kindness on a day-to-day basis... maybe it's paying for the cup of tea that the person in the queue in front of you has just ordered... maybe it's offering to carry an old woman's shopping (and not legging it)... maybe it's as simple as holding a door open for someone.

Odd how some things seem to come to you with little or no effort sometimes.

Anyway, here's a random quote for the day (don't say I don't look after you):

"I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it."
