      First, we need a LOT of money. Then we need to buy an island in the middle of the pacific, and cecede from the country who owns the island. WE COULD BECOME OUR OWN COUNTRY!!!!!!!!&#3 3;!!!!! Weed is legal. No drinking age. We could be communist (because there is no currency and the population is small, it would work PERFECTLY). Everyone gets the same rations for the same amount of work. if you dont do your work, you dont get supplies (an acceptable from of communism). It would be a perfectly relaxed environment, which is PERFECT for lucid dreaming. We would have no global problems, no wars, and no diplomacy. Pefect peace. No racial or religious discrimination. Plus, pacific islands have some of the best scenery and WAVES in the world. SWEET!!!!!!!

      so, what do you think? Hell, you only live once. You might as well buy an island and chill with people with similar interests, right? We might as well have fun while we are still alive.

      good idea or not?


      oh yea, i get to be dictator

      EY!!!!!!!!!&#3 3;! I CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!&#3 3;!!!!

      eh, never mind, we probably shouldnt have any form of government. It'll just skrew everything up.

      It wouldn't work because the whole world would still be capitalist. So we would need a good money income. I say pirating! Yarr

      what if you had a completely self-sustaining community
      with no need for imports from outside

      ooh, and don't use the 'C' word
      people will get scared

      it worked for Key West, in Florida.

      you see, we wouldnt need to "run" our country. We would just eat, sleep, drink, smoke, and have sex. THATS IT!!! NOTHING MORE!!!!!!!!!& #33;!! uh.......utopia?

      we wouldnt join the UN or anything like that. Our island would house no more than 5,000 people. If our population gets too big, we make some walk the plank!!!! ARRRGHH!!!!

      just kidding


      but it is possible. We wont know until we try.

      dont call me crazy, casulite. i could call you crazy just as easy

      see what i'm saying is we would have no currency. "Economy" would not be necessary.

      I dont know about you guys, but i would give up XBOX and TV and IPOD's for a tropical island where i could surf and toke up all day everyday. I would give up all that shit in a HEARTBEAT!!

      lol. Great idea. (and indeed, on a small scale communism could work <3)

      We would just need a nice furtile island, so we can indeed grow our own weed... oh and maybe food too I think we should all just meditate daily, and make sure we never derail in any way (like we don&#39;t want no dictators ^__^).

      i said that jokingly. im not tring to be mean. in theory it could work, but you knows it not going to happen. something like that would take SOOOOOO much money and time and planning, and no one would want to go through all the trouble. i guess its a fun idea to think about though.

      and plus. you know some country would want to claim us and run us under their laws eventually. and its not like we would be able to form a military to rise up against um.

      Before I read this I thought you meant like the Lucid Crossroads, but you didn&#39;t...why not do that though - make it a dream place to go to. Just a thought.

      I would be fun, and it&#39;s definately possible. We&#39;d have to have farms with loads of crops and animals so that we could be totally independant of all other countries. We could have it on a beach somewhere, it&#39;d be like the film "beach" but without crazy pot farmers with AK&#39;s.

      Russia was totally different. The reason it didn&#39;t work in Russia was because the farmers only grew enough food to keep themselves alive, because they could no longer allowed to sell excess crops for extra profit. This meant that the people in the cities starved because there was no food.

      It could work on a smaller scale because every one could work together as a small community.

      I guess on a small scale it could work, but I know someone would try to become dictator.

      maybe not an island. but i think it would be cool to do a weekend gathering. book a seminar room in a hotel. and gather there for a weekend to talk about lucid dreaming. even invite some public to participate.

      i suggest meeting in toronto, since there&#39;s many of us in canada, especially ontario. this would require a lot of &#036;&#036; tho, just a thought.

      What about us brits ?
      Our dreams are firsthand creations, rather than residues of waking life. We have the capacity for infinite creativity.

      So basically it would be DV without the internet? Only expensive and difficult to arrange.

      You guys go ahead an knock yourself out. Doesn&#39;t sound like the kind of place for me. I like to live in a society where I earn my bread by the sweat of my brow. The more sweat, the more bread. The more active and productive individuals, the more general wealth of the nation.

      Guess that makes me a capitalist....or a republican. =P
      you must be the change you wish to see in the world...

      Money is too much of an issue, and communism doesnt grant freedom...

      Thats why we go the way of our imagination&#33; Instead of wasting money on buying an island, we all go to hospitals and have the doctors feed us through tubes. Within these tubes along with our food, are certain sedatives to keep us asleep, along with truckloads of B6. In our minds we then practice the art of shared dreaming. After around a month of practicing, we all meet within the void and build our own island within our minds, and live there with our ultimate power of imagination. As we are in the dream world, everything can be peaceful and beautiful as we dream fit.

      Whilst we&#39;re on the topic of islands, how much are those private islands that you can buy in tropical places?
