"Here's a question then... utopia - Greek for 'perfect place' - is unattainable (because we are imperfect, the world is imperfect...), and efforts to create utopia do seem to inevitably lead to dystopia (Greek for 'bad place'). But (nearly) everyone wants a better place, and so people keep trying to build utopia, thereby creating more dystopian circumstances. So, is it possible/reasonable for a group of people within such a society, where reason seems to be failing and madness growing, to design and build something in between? Perhaps call it Arketostopia (Greek for "Sufficient place")?"
Thoughts?
