Over time our motivation is refined and sometimes re-directed.
I don't understand your post. Are you no longer concerned about the environment? Are oil wars OK with you now?

Have your motivations really changed or have you just gone over to a newer, hipper terminology?
"Elegant"? That's an adjective that's often used in ads for cars.
