Makes you feel pretty helpless, doesn't it? Individually we may be able to do some things that limit the pain but as a whole, there is not much we can do but ride with it. I see Americans changing their life styles in the coming years, as we have not seen in the last 100 years.

If you sit and angonize over it, you become a bundle of helplessness. I am trying not to. The last time I felt as helpless was when gw bush was pounding his drums for war again Saddam. There was very little I could do then either.
