We exchanged a few comments yesterday. More ...Tim, <br />We exchanged a few comments yesterday. More than I can express, I feel your vibes, and your positions. I'm a lot older than you, 74, but my heart has never really aged as much as my body. And so I can still resonate with the frustrations that you feel, because I still feel them today. I have learned though, and feel that change must come from the grass roots over which people walk. As you may have sensed with the comments that you received regarding your anger and rage, people are willing to encourage and change, but only if they (we) have a direction in which to go. The fossil fuel big shots are merely the tip of the iceberg. Their shares pay well, they pay heavy taxes, which in turn allow governments to give services to people. So we can't expect politicians to shoot themselves in the foot, and so the parade of deniers sing as loudly as they are paid. <br />The only way, or better said at least one way to change that condition is to drive an idea that can transcend the status quo. We must use an arrow that can penetrate thousands of years of evolution and that will provide a different perspective for people. The people who are pocketing millions from fossil fuels and who know the possible consequences are taking the chance that the predictions of doom and gloom are wrong, and are betting that the iceberg is still far off into the distance. On the personal side, I have written a manuscript and an idea on how to transcend this paradox between what people actually do, and what people hope for. Perhaps you may be interested at some point to take a shot at reading its premise and perhaps be among the first to get on board. You may think this is kind of kooky, but it isn't... Of course I would not like to think of myself as being kooky, and hopefully I am not. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
