You are far more optimistic than I, roachboy. This is one of the reasons I value your comments. Same for bigoldalphamale. Your opinions are valued.

Alas, I am of the impoverished opinion that we are like the imprisoned man. We are able to be very aware of our imprisonment and able to describe it in great detail - yet we are totally incapable of doing anything effective about it.

I know, given the nature of humanity to require solutions to problems once they are discovered as problems and to believe firmly in their resolvability - especially as they pertain to human "freedom" - this can never be a popular opinion or an acceptable state of affairs. It's too bad that wishing doesn't make things so.
