Thanks.<br /><br /><b>Brian</b><br />Major point. Thank you. We still don't really see the whole globe as our nest, I think. <br /><br /><b>Eileen</b><br />Thanks for this. I do know exactly what you mean. So much that was bizarre is now old hat - as soon the globe might be if we don't get a grip.<br /><br /><b>Christine</b><br />The one aspect that does give hope, I think, has to do with thetruly amazing things that science is now coming up with. I juust hope that the politicians don't find unsavoury uses to put them to. (Two final prepositions - apologies!)<br /><br /><b>The Weaver of Grass</b><br />I'm not sure that it is, though I understand where the source from which it comes. A recent survey seemed to show that it's the younger generation that is not concerned about the planet and it's future. Not sure if it was apathy or confidence!Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-87192909599299576172011-11-26T04:51:55.172+00:002011-11-26T04:51:55.172+00:00What made God rage?
