[TEXT] 001: we've found here that physical contact is renewable energy. in this essay i will

Good afternoon. I am sure we are well aware of how currency operates here by now. I cannot say I am particularly fond of it as a necessity but I would appreciate any input anyone may have on the following.

Has anyone thought to perhaps harness this technology for whenever we return to our respective homes? In my home world, I primarily function as a peacekeeper and mediator. Before this became my purpose, I would attempt to avoid conflict through strategic marriage. I have been reluctant to admit that this caused more trouble than it avoided, but to this day I still hold the ideal that peace can be kept through agreeable relations.

Here, agreeable relations provide energy and currency, both of which are sources of conflict, debate, and an imbalance in quality of life where I hail from. It has even been the cause of violent conflict. Vulgar though it may be, I believe that it is human nature to value such agreeable relations as a far better incentive against such conflict than most anything else. Cash is an incentive that often wins out in the end, even when one is faced with peril. But here, we find that cash, renewable energy, and -- for lack of a better term -- intimacy, are all combined into one. Though I personally find the concept QUITE distasteful, it is my experience that most other living beings subscribe to the idea that "sex sells." What, do you think, may happen if humanity were faced with a reality in which it not only sells, but buys, and provides? It is my belief that such a system would put an end to all known conflict in locations where it is not currently in place.

How do you suppose we might preserve whatever we learn here, and bring it back home, so that agreeable relations can perhaps lead us to a post-scarcity society?

[Once an empire, now neutral, and a center for music...]

You're a center for music? When places related to music are mentioned, the country of Austria is almost always included.

Are you also a musician on top of being a figurehead for Austria, then?

[At this point his brain is still not processing properly the fact that this guy identified himself as Austria. Charles at first dismisses Austria's way of referring to himself as a country figurehead thing.]
