And it is possible you have miscued on the book. Half of the entire text of
this very, very long book is devoted to societies that recognized cultural and ecological disasters and avoided them ... and prospered for thousands of years. The subtitle is more descriptive of the book "How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed".

James, I accept without a reading what you and Don tell me. What shall we do about the warnings beyond what we here on the homestead list espouse? Has Diamond caused any good change? I do not fault him if not. Millions of us are aware of many things that need to be changed. Not many are doing much.
