    Ms. Botsman, I really appreciated your talk! Your vision of a new world characterized by community and shared access gives us hope; to be defined by one’s reputation rather than one’s credit rating is a worthy goal. We all now realize that we cannot gain surplus for ourselves by depriving anyone else, as our planet has a limited amount of resources left; if I consume more than what I need, some else is going to suffer. That being said, realization of this fact is not enough! We must learn how to properly relate to each other: we are interdependent. Your lecture expressed practical application of our communal instinct.

    Interesting there are so few responses. Perhaps Rachel is far ahead of her audience.

    This presentation was an amazing eyeopener at how to look at the world and identifying opportunity for business!
