Dear John,

Never give up hope on our species. Just get published!
We are an intelligent lot.
as well you know!
Great bunch of survivors too :-)
Just need to be clearly informed when making big decisions like
forming an opinion and looking for viable options and solutions to big
problems.

The tide is with us now.

I see the road to the goal posts so brilliantly, just need to sink the
ball.

Warmest regards
Anne

action to prevent global warming and ecological collapse!
