    This like the flouride study frustrates me. Butting heads with idiots is so annoying. It is not a question of is it happening its a question of how best to deal with it. It also drives me nuts that I feel like the intractible folks fighting it when they come around jump to geo engineering.

      A chain - including the logical type - is only as strong as its weakest link. e.g. if I compost a fantastic massage in ym bread (sic x4), but autocorrect mangles it all to hell, then what message did I end up conveying (regardless of what I may have intended)?

      As a global society, it is starting to look like we failed. We did not consider the fundamentals as being important, so we were vulnerable to take-over, both from without and even more from within. Those who obstinately refuse to learn from history are doomed forever to repeat it.

      The world will go on though, with or without any particular nation, or even species (i.e. us).
