hummm....nupedia has nothing to do with "newness" but with "nakedness".
Let me think...living nake...is a sort of freedom...the freedom of not
following social norms, of being body free, caressed by soft wind,
perhaps free like a dolphin (or an orca ?) to play in the ocean ?
What does that means to me otherwise ?
Yes, the freedom of walking barefoot, without the fear of being cut by a
broken coca cola can.
