Used to be the weather was a surefire safe way to start a  
conversation. Global Warming or the lack thereof has provided yet  
another subject about which we may become polarized and upset. Seems  
to me there is a whole lot of frustration going on. Modern life, with  
rapid-fire news from around the world, is just too damned humbling.  
The importance of the individual is diminishing. I am but one of 6.7  
billion-plus-and-rapidly-rising naked apes scratching for subsistence  
and meaning. Sheesh. Where's that beer?
