L.Clancy " Drinking can make people STUPID for a long time, even more so for teenagers, whose brains are still developing and consequently, apt to suffer lifetime learning and memory deficits."
Yes but, is drinking stupid or the society we live in stupid?
Jeffery Sachs, "His thesis: Mankind faces catastrophe unless we work together to adopt sustainable energy, decelerate population growth and help the poor escape the poverty trap. The solutions are within our reach, he says, and the costs will be relatively modest."

Drinking is not a problem, it is an answer to the immoveable aspect of Maine life. Locals and new people from away are invested in a deal they see as perfect, i.e., the view of Maine the way we like it. Don't change it, is not the phrase we need. The intent is create the future, let our children be that process, which is to open ourselves to ways to overcome the mindset we love to think as 'real Maine.'
[news item] Good Citizens & Planning Board preserve Camden Harbor, but really, only saving their narrow view of what is important. If only they could save the community from drinking their lives away because....
Children and adults will continue to drink and drug out their minds until the communities join together in trust to solve problems and create new models of growth.

Water Thoughts
My thoughts are not new, just observations. Like that one on the tree
epidemic in New Mexico. Dried dead trees no longer cycle water
through the atmosphere. Sun hits the turf, up water goes away. Then
there is no more water but deeper down in the sand. There are good
reasons for reforestation along waterways and any area not being
farmed. Farming is more of the depletion of resource that we see in
fishing. Use it, lose it. In fact lose just about everything that
sustains human life.
Man's activity is NOT about objectives of balance. We do however like
to eat meat. When traveling through the South two years ago, there
were terrible storms. One might think that is eternal, they do. My
thought is the over-grazing in Texas Oklahoma and all the Midwest has
contributed to an imbalance. The South is an excellent place to start
grazing. It would help if they would stop raising yellow pine. In
return, we must plant large belts of forest across the Midwest, trees
and shrubs that have deep roots, fast growing, and shade, as well as
in all non-agriculture/farm territories. Stop the over-grazing by law,
and by rotation.
The nature of democracy is the right to take and deplete. While
regulation and restriction is operatively bad to growth, the vision we
need is to organically support activities for all people.

Why I am Who I am
I am not writing this for you, really for me, as I use everything in life for pictures, my life is full of experience I am able to think about, especially if I believe there is spin. Nothing on the other hand can help others but themselves. My situation, being not in a relationship is by choice and by action of inability to define that choice. I was once married and had children, then unmarried. I discourse on virtually all aspects of my inabilties.

Silda 4 President
Sitting in Union station Grill eating white bean soup with southern
flair reminded me that being 1000 yards from The Capital was as good
as any place for an epiphany, and there came before me Spitz and Silda
resigning the Gov.ship in NY. Chatting with a woman next to me, and
watching, while eating, Silda grew in my eyes. Hillary never could be,
as this woman expressed, in her eyes and knowledge of the turn in
fate. Silda is kind of an inverted power, without Bill's hungry eyes,
even Spitz couldn't be assessed in the same way as the former
President, where HRC's ambition is to her husband.
In this case,
Silda's ambition is our pain for her, and ourselves. Imagine a
governor riding down the waves of greed emanating out of Wall Street
and taking them on, only to be sucked into the vortex, and eaten. No,
her stature is of the modern day Jean d'Arc, and we are her legions.
Not against selling sex, for that is the mainline of our 9 trillion
dollar consumer market, rather kicking the greed in the teeth and
making it responsible to the people. When Silda gets mad, it won't be
at Spitz, it'll be at the ongoing unbalance of financial/corporate
greed.
