Lynn,

Exactly. There are so many positives associated with all the apparently
dire things that are falling out around us. It probably all balances out
in the 'end' with needed lessons learned as the next set of challenges
surface.  My greatest concern now is that a few persons and species of
life make it through beyond what is coming upon us and the world due to
our own choices. The world is going to survive, I am not so sure about
life, at least on it's surface. I do think now this is up to us humans,
not 'fate' or supernatural forces.

It is not easy to walk away from dietary habits deeply embedded in our
various cultures. Enjoyable true, but with a heavy price.  The fact that
there is not a consensus by the 'experts' furthers the confusion
regarding what we eat. One can only search and do the best one can OR,
as you say, be forced into going without, proven many times over as a
preventative and healer of 'unatural' disease.

We have again taken to walking to our country mailbox,  what with the
higher price for gasoline. With the blowup of my rototiller, the hoe has
become a major source of almost daily exercise, and I think both I and
the earthworms are better off for it.  Now if I can get to hand-digging
again on my underground house, of ever growing attraction considering
the days at hand,  I should then be in pretty good shape if it does not
kill me first.  I do enjoy digging in our rock-free soil.  Jerry B
