Jochen,
He’s out of his friggin mind. There are those who feel that the risk arising from the stultification of our political system was so bad that it justified taking this sort of existential risk (Hey, Dave!), but I am not one of them. Small interesting things ARE starting to happen, (meetings amongst scared non-crazy people in congress) and I am grateful for those, but whether they will develop in time to rescue us, is by no means certain. People keep offering me as comfort the fact that the South Koreans aren’t worried …. 30 million people on the edge of obliteration from conventional shells full of sarin. Why does that not comfort me? No, we are back to the Cuban Missile Crisis. Nick Nicholas S.

I am worried we are heading to the apocalypse. The "fire and fury" threat feels like the Cuban missile crisis or worse. http://blog.cas-group.net/2017/08/the-apocalypse/ And then there is the issue of global warming which the Trump administration ignores now. This is not just one apocalypse, it is two. -J.
