Dear Moderns,

For much of human history, individuals didn’t know what was going on beyond their own tribes. They spent their time thinking about surviving in their own world.

Today we know what time the sun rose in Sydney, Australia. And we also know the weather, the population, and the annual rainfall. But do we know more about the lives of Sydneysiders? What do we do with all of this knowledge? Do we use it to make the world a better place for all people or is it just something else we possess?

What are you going to do with all of the knowledge that’s right at your fingertips?

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
