Narberth, Pennsylvania, December '95: 
Our backyard draped in Winter's Mantle

Remember the Blizzard of 1995 - 96?

What are your plans when global warming causes systemic over correction, and pushes the global weather pattern into a new ice age?

Consider this, 'global warming' is a vulgar misnomer for a complex system's response to green house gases, ozone depletion, and other human assaults
on the the ecomind.

In attempting to re-establish steady state, the earth's weather patterns will surely oscillate between the poles of hot and cold. And as it strives to establish new parameters, within which it will again maintain a steady state, the extremes of an ice age are just as likely as the melting of the polar ice caps. What do we humans really know about such matters?

Although humankind has disrupted the balance of atmospheric gasses and the ozone layer, certainly the innate wisdom of the global ecosystem--call it Gaia, if you must, I prefer 'ecomind' --will find a way to survive.

What if the global ecosystem does not care one wit about the arrogant posturing of our species, our supposedly superior intelligence, nor our supposed singular right to salvation?

We all stayed home and watched too much TV
