or did automatic adherence to existing conventions discourage change? In either case, determined individuals, both bold and reckless, can profoundly challenge our perspectives of the world in which we live. In contrast, no one remembers those who timidly attach themselves to the status quo. The individuals who are afraid to inspire or embrace change are the footnotes of history, mere afterthoughts.

With these thoughts in mind, I put forth these foundational ideas that some may think bold and others reckless, but ones that I hope will inspire the kind of discussion and debate that live up to the ideal of Be Boulder.
