[kictanet] The Word for Your Soul

Fri Dec 9 13:22:08 EAT 2011

Ladies and gentlemen…

We seem to be going off on a tangent. Do we call for a cessation of hostilities…?

Practically speaking, and if we are to be honest to ourselves, this list has and  indeed continue to cover a diverse 

range of topics of such immense informative, educative, inspirational, etc – value to every one of us.

For instance;

·         Did anyone just see an informative post earlier on  from Washington, regarding the Southern Bypass..?

·         Is it of value to anyone on this list, and beyond. Can it save lives…?

·         Has it been informative to anyone, and is there anything to be thankful about for being informed…?

·         Can ICT be part of the solution, to these kind of challenges that face us..?

If anyone would answer yes, to anyone of the questions above, then let’s be sincere to each other and avoid

burying our heads in the sand like the proverbial ostrich…

My point isn't religion. I'm all for religious freedom, and I don't aspire to a USSR/North Korea state of affairs. But I have subscribed to this list for ICT issues. If I wanted bible excerpts, or any other religious texts, or celebrity gossip, or descriptions of yoga postures, or information on dog breeds, I'd go somewhere else.

Muraya, you forgot to mention that twitter has a new interface -
another avenue for highlighting our issues.
Liz, well, I find it relative, for our redemprion is near - the cost
of internet + voice calls will drop soon, the time it takes to
register a company will be just 36 HRS, firms which are selling data
will be bound by SLA and KPLC will either have a (non-state)
competitor or be providing services as it should.
By the way, how far is the digital switch going on?

Andrea, religious issues can sometimes lead to people fighting, but
hey, they remain part of our lives - sometimes as they say, a change
is as good as a rest (for just a moment), and thus rest my case.

Siku njema.
