True. But there was still all the talk of overpopulation, the coming ice age, silent spring, exploding cars, soylent green, ape-like planets, killer asteroids, the ever-prent coldwar, and MAD, the doomsayers were as abundant and wrong back then as they are today.
Indeed wise advice. We all need to do that. The world is changing and staying stuck to what we used to believe in could be dangerous. It’s good to have an open mind with a moral compass of course so we don’t lose our way.
Beautiful arrangement, Sylvia. Unlearning all that “crap” we learned in high school with Paul Simona is one step in the right direction

Learning in high school, that’s highly unlikely. Not much to unlearn in my case, lol.
