ASP (5/7)

We talked about what order people help. At first, our members thought that we should help Mike Smith first because a strong person can pull many people at one time. However, we gave up this idea. We can not pull many people at one time because rope may be split. ( We were NOT able to realize that we can pull faster if there is the strong person!) Then, we discussed the turn with thinking about the age, the sex, and the career. It was very difficult to conclude it. In the class, I found the point of view that the old person spend much time but the young not enough. I have not ever thought that because I think people must help and respect the elder. The new idea is very fresh for me! Who is worth helping? Who should be given preference? They are VERY difficult to answer. I want to find the way that everybody can survive in such dangerous situations. In the class I can not find the idea of fast pulling. So I think that I have to continue to look for the solution by various way even if the situation is hopeless. We should not decide the order of the life, but find the way to help everyone effectively.
