re: #281 The Shadow Do

Such a pessimist. Do Israelis eat? Are Iowan’s too stupid to find another crop, or are they sure to become 22nd century bedoins or somesuch?

People are smart, change is incremental, it is wrong to think folks will fold their tent and go all dustbowl or somesuch. That kind of thinking is alarmist and extreme. Why, I wouldn’t be surprised to find some smart agriculturist come up with a corn type that would thrive in half the water used today. But that is just ever old optimistic me I guess.

NOt if there isn’t enough to go around. This is a global problem and we are the world’s bread basket. Taking us out is real real bad - for everyone.

How can you be so blinded by wishful thinking?
