Summitted by blog reader "D" who adds this personal heading:
I am noticing - in a totally opinionated way - a dramatic uptick in "good stuff" that needs to be passed along. I have a gut feel that in the next year or two things are going to get markedly different, globally.
It could be a China-attacks-Japan-drawing-in-the-US thing, or Russia/Ukraine-or-someone, or Israel attacks Iran with Saudi & other help, or, or, or. But I have the sensation we're approaching an inflection point in the world. There are far too many piles of flame-ready tinder around the world, and far too many people playing with matches - both domestically and globally, for something to not catch fire. And once one fire starts, it'll spread. And I fear - FEAR - the accuracy of the line from "The Hunt from Red October"....
"Things are going to get out of control, and we'll be lucky to live through it."
