presentation

hi everyone.. Just to let you know that I have had an idea for the presentation.. After the last lecture which was relevant to us, I was interested by what Russell has to day on the subject of Idleness. I had already read this article from the library, and reading it again reinforced some ideas. I was interesed in his comments that if everyone worked 4 hours there would be no unemployment, and that the upper classes kept the working classes in work in order to keep their lifestyles.. I came up with this idea. Linda could play her guitar(lets use those talents )whilst sitting on the floor with a stuffed dog(sympathy vote) and a cap with coins. Joy could push baby (yes, Ist stage appearence at a few weeks old) and be single parent. clare and I could be upperclasses, talking posh, fur coat and no knickers (perhaps too cold for no knickers!) and could comment on the other two. Using Russells arguments we could make a script using the two sides of the arguments.. Sounds good or not? It would make people laugh in the 1st instance don't you think! It would be easy to script and enjoyable.. Anyway, just an idea. Let me know what you think and put forward your suggestions or add to this.Also there is an interesting essay on Russell.. http://www.panarchy.org/russell/idleness.1932.html. Have a read. Yvonne
