Everyone's a critic and an expert
.
Conservative columnists become instant scientists whenever they write about global warming. For centuries, explorers searched for the Northwest Passage. Until recently, ice blocked the way.

I know what you mean, each guru endorses the next guru, and finally all the data gets thrown in the waste bucket because our gurus can't absorb all the information of the planet, or mainly because some data doesn't fit into the picture of the world they exposed. That's too bad, but I don't drop one leader to go follow another. I've done yoga, been vegetarian and meditated all my life just to stay healthy and my body knows when something is wrong with this planet.

I can't blame anyone not to know everything that ever was, is or will be, but don't tell me that a cat barks, I've got ears to. Love your site, and please keep your mind open and objective as it is, you do yourself a great justice. Peace my man and a great New Years to you and yours.
