24. ever since I read Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
I've pretty much been convinced that your way is the only answer for a sustainable planet. If we have to sacrifice things like advanced medicine and computers, etc., so be it. I'd never make it in such a society. That's okay by me. Ever since we "invented" agriculture, we've been bad for the planet...sure it starts with a few stalks of corn and sprigs of wheat, and a couple of milennia later--here we are. Sigh. I hope you get your hunter/gatherer society AG78--and I hope the planet gets it, too, with or without me in it.
