Gathering+Blue

 Hey - I'm still alive! I just took a few weeks off. I've read your comments and have posted some new question threads on the discussion tabs. I'm keeping this original question here for newcomers to see. So go check out new questions on the discussion tab! And spread the word that I'm back. OB1

Consider the class discussion we had about what it would take to create a functional Utopia. We listed the following items: Now, how does the community in __Gathering Blue__ try to accomplish these things? Is it working so far?
 * a common goal or objective
 * small numbers in the community
 * all are born into the society or go through some kind of brainwashing so there are no outside thoughts
 * equal distribution of goods - no greed
 * equal civil rights
 * everyone is same race or people are colorblind to race differences
 * no individual thinkers
 * isolated community/ little or not outside influence
