Off and On

My Internet connection went down Saturday and has been off since. It's on again now, but spitty. If you don't hear from me as often as usual, that's why.

Time to Stop Digging

I was intrigued by this article:

Bob Herbert | Yes We Can
Bob Herbert of The New York Times: "The moment is ripe for exactly the kind of challenge issued by Mr. Gore on Thursday. It doesn't matter if his proposal is less than perfect, or can't be realized within 10 years, or even it if is found to be deeply flawed. The goal is the thing. The fetish for drilling for ever more oil is the perfect metaphor these days. The first thing you do when you find yourself in a hole is stop digging."㕲


I think the most important part is that last line: The first thing you do when you find yourself in a hole is stop digging. In order for our civilization to survive, we need to shift from the current unsustainable model of business to something sustainable, including renewable resources.
