Have for years been a regular reader of Juan's outstanding articles (as I find them on other discerning websites).
Now obviously finding myself on juancole.com (yes, yes belatedly) I am equally fortunate to have come across a Comment section that is well worth reading and responding on. Thank you!
Actually getting so carried away that I am venturing to post a comment in verse. With apologies as, while us poets strive for immortality, most folks just seem to want us dead:
"our outlook fossiliferous
toward restraint belligerent
in our daily lives carboniferous
toward the future indifferent
hubristic vanity
in despairing dissonance
turned full blown insanity
beyond deliverance:
while icarus merely didn't watch the wax
we're giving our whole species the axe"
