The Facts of an Alternative Life

Maybe We Should Talk......

Language is probably one of the most effective barriers to communication ever devised by mankind.

Doubtless is was not meant to be this way - but we do all tend to say one thing, mean another and probably express a third.

One occasionally wonders if the story of the tower of Babel is less parable and more plain, unvarnished truth. If it is parable, then that is probably because God already knew that scrambling man's ability to communicate verbally with his fellow person was almost as necessary as reminding us to breathe.

We do that on our own as well.

The GCL is an exploration of this concept as it happens in real life* on the small and sunny island of Cyprus. Enjoy, feel free to agree/disagree/be confused/fall asleep/finally discover the meaning of life or anything else that seems appropriate to you.

Just enjoy :-)

*Whatever that is.
