<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black'>Hello All. <br>
<br>
As someone who has seen the original version of "Numen" I would like
to offer the following observation. In my mind, the biggest hurdle we face in
addressing the challenges in the conservation of species, be they plant or
animal, as well as total biodiversity is humanity's ever increasing lack of
connection and interaction with the natural world.<br>
<br>
Especially in the West and in most developed nations around the globe much of
the population lives in a "bubble" of man-made technology, structures
and contrived streetscapes. Most of their respective population's sensory
stimulation is provided by traffic, video games, IMAX theaters, and 32"
flat screen televisions. They live within and identify themselves by
geopolitical boundaries and are subject to "law" enacted by the
whimsy of politicians. This is their world, albeit a world of illusion, nothing
more. <br>
<br>
Simply put, much of humanity has lost touch with the natural world that
sustains us and indeed has sustained us for hundreds of thousands of years.
People do not, can not, value what they do not know. And as a consequence, they
do not treasure and protect what they do not value.<br>
<br>
To me that was what the film "Numen" was all about, reestablishing
that connection.<br>

business of herbs, key questions to ask in purchasing herbal products, and the
importance of being aware of where they come from, how they are grown and
harvested and that leads into a discussion of United Plant Savers. We have
removed that section in this version mostly because the film was just too long.
But also because we no longer felt we could do justice to the business of
herbal products, which is a huge, complex and extremely mixed industry in a 10
min section of a longer film. We chose to focus more on the relationship with
plants, emphasis on growing your own medicine, etc and not the herbal
industry/products per se. I know that doesn't really address the question,
except that that would be an entirely different film. We are going to add this
section from the original film w/business of herbs and the section on UpS as
