“When I was young, the world seemed destined to go Communist or suffer a catastrophic nuclear war. Then we were said to be doomed by over-population and resource exhaustion. Then it was a devastating energy shortfall that we were warned was coming. Yet we escaped those perils and more.”

In my Red State bastion of Florida, the water for this frog is still comfortable.
