Pencil: The Making of a Pencil


This is an essay that explains why people cannot live independently of others.
It shows why the economic system has to be reconstructed. To reconstruct
something does not mean to necessarily put it back as it was. Indeed, it is a
chance for improvement and to remove what experience has shown were faults in
the previous design.

"To be civilized is to restrain the ability to commit mayhem.
To be incapable of committing mayhem is not the mark of the civilized,
merely the domesticated." - Trefor Thomas

Dr. Armand Hammer's first claim to fame was running a pencil making
