I tend to make a lot of mental pictures these days, starting with, "gasoline is now $10 a gallon, when you can get it, and the power was out for four hours five times this week ..........." etc. and then move on from there, trying to figure out what works, what doesn't, who is doing what, and so on. The surprising part is that, while many problems loom huge in these pictures, some other things which have always bothered me have disappeared. Fewer monster vehicles hogging the roads. Less light pollution at night, I can see the Milky Way every evening now, like I did when I was 8. More time to get to know one's neighbors. More fresh and local food, no more grapes from Chile while Chileans go hungry ... etc. Susan
