Be honest Scott, your goals are based on emotion, aren't they?

In the most simple example, "Power and Control" comes in when you decide 
that your emotions are good for all. Call that "arrogance". Past that, your 
probably just a dupe with the rest of the herd..

I strongly urge you to push the fat cat enviro groups into coughing up some 
money to buy your own corner of the Mojave for "Everlasting Protection" from 
the baaaad humans. 

Just don't ask or ever think I should support your emotions. 

Honestly, if they/you do buy up a piece, I'll gladly fly over and help 
ya lay the fence.
