Buckminster Fuller Dictionary

Buckminster Fuller produced a Dictionary to describe everything he saw. It consisted of well over 21,000 words. He saw words as tools which one needs to do to carry out a job. Where it gets more interesting has to how he explains what is wrong with the words we use today. In the past people thought the world was flat until Christopher Columbus proved other wise. While people today still talk to one another as if the world is still flat. Buckminster Fuller explains that if the human beings have a false sense of what is going on around them it's going to make it more difficult to solve world problems. As people know a lot of people are short of adequate resources, clean water, food and shelter.  Humans have created a false sense that there isn't enough to go around for everyone, which simple is not true. The dictionary was designed to help people to sense what was really going on around them. I can't think of another person who understood nature and to better human kind than any one else
