Earth scape, in the new millennium was commonly summarized as "Pillars and Preservations"  The pillars were the buildings of new, buildings that stretched for miles upon miles into the atmosphere.  The preservations were categorized as both natural places and also the cities of old.  These cities were kept in pristine conditions and intentionally locked into different centuries.  The Earth and it's historical markers were held with such reverence that motions to build or change anything was an undertaking pushed by only those who held nearly lifelong commitments.

The democracy of the collective Earth inhabitants was in a state of fixed agreement; one where most progressional ideologies were simply benched by the majority.  Words like capitalism or communism were historically significant but did not ring true as anything more than buzzwords of a prior millennium.  We had turned the Earth into a kind of museum where the exhibits simply did not change.

In the prior 2,800's, the much more progressive agenda's had been pushed to the degree where by 3,000 Earth residents were privy to "All things recorded" a phrase that had become both a rule of thumb and a way of life.  In attempt to preserve the world, all things and events on the Earth were recorded by redundant measures and stored upon orbiting drives.  In fact, near Earth drives were redundantly backed up by drives in other orbits.  "All things recorded" simply meant that one should behave in full knowledge that their activities were saved for posterity.

In a world where all things are recorded, privacy was a luxury only to be found in the great Sun System.  The simple desire for privacy had become a catalyst for additional out bound Sun System traffic.  This was a constant.  Still the core collective of democracy was the elite Earther, generations who'd been conservative in their needs for non-terra activity.  Within that mainstream was a silent rejection of non-terra gene pools.  Most notably the Lunar Quet line of human.  While considered human, the Quet lines or Quet gene anomaly, tended to have more visual differences than Earth inhabitants.  No where else during these times, were individuals seen to appear so alien.  The irony of it was that the Quet human lived on the moon, a terrain so close to the Earth.

While the Earth had a scarcity of a youth population and an active breeding was put at the fore front of the collective, there were certain lines among the Quet that simply would not breed with those without Quet genes.  The reaction among some Earth folk was that of a chuckle.  Most Earthlings thought the Quet type odd in appearance, namely a dwarfing torso region.  However many thought the longer neck to be aesthetically pleasing.  The result was a cultural ideal of the long vertical necks being a trait worthy of passing along, while a shorter torso should gradually be denied.

It is important to not that many Quet considered themselves an advancement in human design.  It was observed the Quet would lift their brows in the presence of other Quet if there were Earthmen in the room.  When made public, Earthlings were compelled to speak poorly about them, refering to them as subhuman.  Still, along with the visual difference in lunar generations, the position that Quet were inferior, was indefensible.  They had a calculative ability that put them in high positions of data processing and productions.  Now the question arose, would the Quet buy into cross planetary breeding or was their a kind of Quet pride; an unwillingness be be absorbed by what they seemed to consider the inferior human beings.
