What I Really Think

I think the Earth will effectively die within the next 100 years.

Oh, I don't mean life will cease to exist, but rather that people will be choking on fumes, dying of communicable diseases, or just exertiminating each other--probably in the cause of religion-- and animals will be a minority. No doomsday, but a dreary, sad, untenable world.

This I believe.

Humans have no inclination to change the downward spiral of the world we live in.

Even if we did, we could not get enough of us together to make a difference.

So, selfish me, I think . . .

What am I doing teaching kids in Korea the English language?

Shouldn't I be out saving the rainforest or something? Or, failing that noble endeavor, cavorting with semi-clad women in some tropical paradise?

Just a bit of "soul searching" . . .
