Navy thinks its advertising is source of its recruitment problem. How about 'stop-loss,' inadequate body armor and armored transports, crappy veterans care, over 4,000 dead and 40,000 wounded, and a war with no-end in sight? Besides if you get shot within the first year, you have to give part of your enlistment bonus pro-rated back to the military.

"In his groundbreaking new book Bottom Up: Tapping the Power of the Connection Revolution, Rob Kall invites and eases us into in a much-needed meta-level shift -- a truly basic paradigmatic shift from top-down to bottom-up. He capably and imaginatively explores the differences between these ways of approaching life, clearly demonstrating that bottom-up allows us to flourish. His vision and his book are enriched by telling references to interviews which he has engaged in over the years with bottom-up researchers, theorists, activists, and dreamers in a variety of areas. Think about Rob's interviews. Read this revolutionary book. And take one step further into the bottom-up universe yourself. You will not regret it."
