Cheers, appreciate that. Writing it down for other people to possibly read makes me actually think about the issues that little bit harder before committing to a position. We live in interesting times. 9/11 was cataclysmic but almost nothing that happened on the world stage in the following ten years could not have been foreseen. In terms of sheer unpredictability this here now is the most interesting and dangerous the world has felt since the Iran hostage crisis and the Russians being invited into Afghanistan way back in '79. The 80s were just wild - all the way from horrifically murdered nuns in El Salvador to the fall of the Wall. No wonder so much of the music was either deeply glum or blithely escapist. And no wonder U2 cleaned up from the vantage point of all that stadium-wide moral high ground. Humans love someone who can boil complexity down to something over-simplified with a big chorus and power chords!
