And when we met at art school and fell in love in 1971, I hated puppets.

So we exchanged business cards, and we kept calling each other and decided to start this organization, Friends of the High Line.

So to sum up language is a collective human creation, reflecting human nature, how we conceptualize reality, how we relate to one another.

Let s say that a friend moved away due to fear of radiation while I stayed, and we ran into each other twenty years down the line.

It's also Web and mobile allow us to be connected and create all kinds of platforms and systems, and the investment of those technologies and that infrastructure is really our inheritance.

So for instance, by measuring the genome, we've learned a lot about how we're related to other kinds of animals by the closeness of our genome, or how we're related to each other the family tree, or the tree of life.

And this is the insight, the thing that we are excited about, because we have gone away from the community that we are, the fact that we really do love each other and want to care for each other.

It matters to me because I think we're setting ourselves up for trouble trouble certainly in how we relate to each other, but also trouble in how we relate to ourselves and our capacity for self reflection.

All humans share some common bits of DNA, passed down to us from our African ancestors. Geneticist Spencer Wells talks about how his Genographic Project will use this shared DNA to figure out how we are in all our diversity truly connected.

We didn't all know each other, but we all kind of trusted each other, and that basic feeling of trust permeated the whole network, and there was a real sense that we could depend on each other to do things.

What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot end on this autumn night. This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were. It can't happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice. So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.

And by loving and leaving all that oil has done for us, and that the Oil Age has done for us, we are able to then begin the creation of a world which is more resilient, more nourishing, and in which, we find ourselves fitter, more skilled and more connected to each other.

And so for me, a mesh company, the classic mesh company, brings together these three things our ability to connect to each other most of us are walking around with these mobile devices that are GPS enabled and Web enabled allows us to find each other and find things in time and space.

Now I really think as the world is getting smaller, it becomes more and more important that we learn each other's dance moves, that we meet each other, we get to know each other, we are able to figure out a way to cross borders, to understand each other, to understand people's hopes and dreams, what makes them laugh and cry.
