This is a great essay. It's not filled with amazing things; you'd probably have guessed much of this on your own if you had spent time wondering about it; but it's filled with interesting points and worthwhile thoughts.

I'm agreeable to their definition of heroism, too. Take a look.

Thank you - that is indeed a very interesting article.

I especially like the idea of develop a code of honour - something that could come in very handy sometimes.

I saw this a few days ago and have written about it on my blog. I think it's a great piece - especially as a starter. They want to explore it more. I think my favourite part was the personal habit of heroism. That's a great concept and something everyone can benefit from.

Hello Michael. I read this essay when I was browsing your site. I was very much impressed with your essay "People Structures: Whiplash" and have added you in ICQ. I enjoy talking to interesting people. Hope you don't mind.
