Maureen, you have captured our race to end our existence with a stark image. In fact, you capture/describe my obsession--negative externalities. The idiots now in charge suggest that drilling will make our lives better. I wonder for how long. The unpaid costs for this immediate pleasure (you picked the best possible way to relate this) will be quite stunning. The recent fires in LA are only a preview of what's to come. It won't take very long to see what's about to happen.

In creepy horror flick child’s voice… “they’re here”. It’s here. It just occurred to me trying to muster response for you it’s like cirrhosis, we’ve reached the decompensated state. Maybe a poem tomorrow, tissue for my tears today. xomo
