re: #299 brookly red

ah yes, the world is on fire, tear gas & water cannons in the streets, and of course we stick our thumbs in our mouths & cry Rush…

What? The world if far from on fire. This convulsion notwithstanding, the world is at a peak of peace and prosperity. Our technology improves with colossal momentum. We have the means to address our AGW problems, and our financial problems are just a nuisance in the big scheme.

Things, believe it or not, are better than they’ve ever been.
