"I hope it was all good things that Nicolai told you about me," I interrupted her.
"Much of it came from what other people told him about you. And believe me, it's all true and wonderful," Heather replied.
"Like what, Heather?"
She blushed. "Do the letters CSB mean anything to you?" she asked and grinned.
"Nicolai knows about that? If this is so, Sylvia must have told him."
"No, I think he got it from Fred. Nicolai thinks it is a cute idea."
"And you? What do you think, Heather?"
"Nobody told me what it means. Everybody says, 'ask Peter,' and then they begin to smile, Sylvia too. And now with this girl watching speech coming up. I bet it has something to do with that."
"In a way it has," I admitted. "Actually, it has got more to do with what Fred asked me to prepare in support of Tony's speech."
"Yes, I meant to ask you about it. How are you going to address Fred's demands?" Heather asked, grinning now from ear to ear while our Pizza was being served. The pizza was loaded with everything that is hot and goes with pepperoni, so it seemed, and with wine.
"The first thing that I have to do is address the property rights issue," I said the Heather.
Her grin vanished as if she didn't want to hear about this stuff. It didn't seem to fit into the atmosphere that had developed between us. Still, it was necessary to get into this to answer her question. "Property rights is the issue that the conference was convened for. Sylvia tore up the agenda, but not the issue. The issue remains a vital one."
"Why, Peter? Why is this so important?"
"It is important, because it is the reason for the total collapse of the world's financial and economic system that we have just experienced," I replied cautiously. "This issue needs to be addressed, because several times as many people have died during the last few months as the result of the economic collapse around the world, because of that very issue, than have died in all the wars of the 20th Century combined. When an economy disintegrates, a lot of people can't eat, and if they can't eat, people die. This terrible disintegration occurred as the result of greed-based economics, curtsey of Adam Smith, the champion of property and property rights. The property rights issue is an issue of greed based economics. The issue stands in opposition to universal economic development. You can't have both, you know. You can't go forwards and backwards at the same time. We had a global systemic failure, because all development had stopped. Everything normal stops when rape is imposed."
"Hold it!" Heather interrupted. "I thought you were supposed to prepare the ground for Tony's girl watching speech."
"I will do that, Heather. That's what it is about. Tony's speech will be focused on Helen's principle of the universal kiss. Helen defines this as an essential element of our humanity; the element of our peace. Universal economic development is a deeply related aspect. Helen calls this the element of our joy. Science is likewise an aspect of our humanity. Helen doesn't know about this aspect yet. She would call it the element of our light."
"But what has girl watching got to do with any of that?" Heather asked.
"It's an aspect of the universality that is reflected in all elements of our humanity," I replied. "Sex is a part of our universal humanity, of our universal marriage, and of the science that defines the fullness of our divinity. When we find ourselves in developing these aspects, rape won't be thought of anymore. It simply won't happen. And that is what I have to prepare for."
