Hmmm.  There have been some cultures that were very non-aggressive.  The
Hopi come to mind, but I may be wrong.  Does anyone offhand know what the

There was a man in our town,
An Astrophysicist,
    Who found a place
    In Hyperspace
By just a twist of the wrist.

But when he sought the Near Now
And gave another twist,
    He found that he'd
    Become somehow
A Cyberneticist.
