Well, Urb, I tend to think that much, much worse is coming.
Much worse.
The ability to adapt to horror will be a handy skill. ;-}
The Siberian bogs are melting, which will release billions of tons of methane. The Himalayan glaciers are melting, which will cut off 70% of the water to India and Southeast Asia. The NYT today suggests that the sea level will rise 2 to 4 feet in the next 50 years, so current efforts to rebuild New Orleans are doomed anyway.
Soon the poor will come boiling out of the slums around the world, flinging bottles of urine.
Adaptation to horror will be the key to happiness.
