   Also to suppose not.  In the meantime, humans are left to decide what   
   is best.  So far they have considered little beyond how to sell a city   
   plot with house or a rural plot with farm for a million dollars or   
   better.  So they have little evidence as to what might be better for   
   humans who are not real estate agents.  I suggest that such evidence   
   might be useful, as opposed to the proposition that there are no uses,   
   only the universe doing itself.

   Human needs are now of much larger scope, but also without knowing   
   how.  Maybe it might be useful to know how to do these more difficult   
   things.
