Anyone want to write the book "Crowdism" that espouses the philosphy that crowds are wise?  Their formation should be encouraged and trusted.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3261776597426159327-7723659587502969694?l=crowdism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://crowdism.blogspot.com/feeds/7723659587502969694/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3261776597426159327&amp;postID=7723659587502969694' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3261776597426159327/posts/default/7723659587502969694'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3261776597426159327/posts/default/7723659587502969694'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://crowdism.blogspot.com/2006/11/crowdism.html' title='Crowdism'/><author><name>captaindarling99</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01909686112486665848</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
