Wait a minute, is that "theCraig's"TM list?

So they're looking for writers and those interested in writing about generational theory? Nope, can't say I've seen any of those types here.

Follow the posted link, and submit a writing sample.

Despite my joking, it is nice to know that there is opportunities being offered by Lifecourse Associates. I might even apply in the future, but right now there are other existing commitments in my life at this time. Plus there are too many others here who are way more qualified than I in both respects. I does sound like a good way to get into the field.

Send your resume and writing samples to the email address? Seems simple enough.

I think we all have something interesting to say, it would be a good idea to make it a collaborative effort. One person, Chas comes, could write about generation theory in regards to theater and literature. Some of the economic experts here could relate it to that, and so on and so forth with other subjects like history, social issues, politics, music, etc...I don't think any one person could possibly write about every aspect of Generation Theory.

I suspect that the writing will be on assigned topics, since the work product will be sold to Lifecourse customers. If you're lucky, the restrictions may be small and freedom broad, but I doubt that will always be true.

I would have been a long shot... it would be quite an experience to research (in the presence of excellent reference libraries) and write instead of opining off the cuff. Someone would have to clip my tendency to go far to the Left on economics and Right on many other things (the latter -- drugs, crime, educational content, sexualization of life)...

Something interesting would be to compare other countries' crises.

People need a good scare; history is to a large extent an obscene tale written in the blood of innocent people.
The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" (or) even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered... in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by (those) who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern."
