>>>I do not recall any other period in the last 40 years where the "fear factor" has been intense as it is now<<<

Someone once commented to me that one stood to gain enormously by reading Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged every ten years. I am late about twice now.

I recall it starting with the minor protagonist getting off a train, noticing that the station had gotten a little shabby, and experiencing a sense of fear. All around him he sensed fear, and he felt fear.

Time for me to dust that puppy off.

I don't see any Hank Reardens out there. Do you??? Maybe the Tata folks. It isn't the windmill folks. The solar panel people maybe. It certainly isn't Al Gore wanting to plant CO2 in the ground to make the flowers grow.
