Year's End Roundup -- 2022 edition | |

P.L.A.N. for Collapse | |
Still working my way through William Catton's 1982 book | |
'Overshoot'[0]. Got distracted when I picked up "Peruvian | |
Plunge"[1], Sam Mitchell's self-published travel memoir/gringo | |

as Hambone Littletail, the cantankerous | |

Seems it has been a while since the last post. Been taking a brea | |

advantage of an unusually warm Fall and an abundance of apples on | |

It's another smokey hot Summer on the front range. Apparently mos | |
of the smoke is from the west coast; so far Colorado seems to be | |
escaping a repeat of last year's epic wildfires. We've even gotte | |
a decent amount of rain, enough to keep the wildflowers going and | |
the grasses green. | |
Have finally gotten starting reading William Catton's seminal 1980 | |
book | |

film reviews: 'Hot Money' and 'Kiss the Ground' | |
That's right -- it's a two-fer! Both are recent documentary film | |
and although they occasionally cross topical paths they are | |
somewhat partisan affairs and framed for their target audiences. | |
Both are worth watching. | |
