Signs & Portents

I had another Humphrey Fellows session today. I was joking with a friend that we need to have a session on a topic that doesn’t leave us completely depressed afterwards. Because right now I’m convinced that we’ll all be scrounging landfills for food in a few years because a loaf of bread will cost a hundred dollars. And that’s the good scenario. The worst-case scenario is that we get hit with a terrorist attack that makes 9/11 look amateurish. I better make that trip to Vegas soon, before everything goes to hell.
Almost at page 300 in the book. I’m thinking another 150-200 pages, but conciseness has never been my strong suit.
