It keeps us happy and at each other's throats while our governments 
sell us out for a pot of message.* 
I suspect that our best move is all to join Hans Schnauber's little 
society and put our full weight, whether we're collectors or not, behind 
the drive to save the environment.
Our differences are slight; our common goal is important. And he's 
invited all of us, not just those who agree with him, to join his 
project.
