  Memo from a Pragmatist

  All this legislation is wonderful - I support it wholeheartedly...BUT...why is no one mentioning the 3 billion pound gorilla in the room -- HUMAN OVERPOPULATION!  I do not need to indicate the prime offenders - everyone knows who they are, anyway.  So what are THEY going to do?  Point their fingers at the United States, I see.  Well, those fingers pointing BACK at you are your negligence in controlling your population growth and all the attendant misery it brings.

  Now, we can quibble and piffle about auto emissions and coal, and there is, of course, scientific truth to this.  But, let's get REAL folks - WHO REQUIRES ALL THIS ENERGY AND FOR WHAT?  Mmmm-hmm, I thought you'd say that.

  I will ultimately, down the line, be proven right on one thing.  We should go back to horses!  And after human overpopulation has wreaked the havoc that it inevitably WILL - meaning less people, then the world can slow down, and cars will be a thing of the past.

  The human race managed for centuries without SUVs or their ilk.  Remember I said it here - when you find this file in some old archive or the other.  When you walk out to saddle up your mare or hitch up your team.

  Think I'm crazy?  Wait until you create a world where cockroaches are the size of SUVs!  And you will, if you keep breeding like you are.

  Heed my screed.
