World Game:
“What we’re proposing here is that the computerized world game become, really, world acceptable, because it is not in terms of bias. It’s going to come out with answers all the time that don’t correspond to any of the political theories of any of the countries. But what is important is assimilation by our society, and particularly by the young world that is finding the older world locally preoccupied. A young world that’s suddenly informed by television and thinks about total spaceship Earth for the first time. But the older generation doesn’t. The younger generation has the same compassion old generations and young generations have always had, but now it’s for all of humanity, and the young generation is extraordinarily well apprised of all kind of new technical capabilities. They feel they’re just going in the wrong negative directions. So they feel very intuitively that the older people are asleep at the switch and that something needs to be done. This is the first public witnessing of this group playing the world game. You are going to be confronted with finding out what are the potentials and actually mastering them.”
