Can the impulse to engage in war be tamed?
Without going all Koenigsburgerking on you guys
and signing you up for pricey seminars about
recondite and fatuous unconscious sacrifice
narratives--I'll ask you to remember--in one
run-on sentence--Jimmy Carter in his sweater,
setting the White House thermostat down, and,
swiping from William James, to call on all
Americans to wage "the moral equivalent of war" by
developing a new type of energy economy that would
liberate us from dependence on the Middle East oil
maestros.
Sixteen years car-free,
Eric
