Red at night... Sailors delight! Right?
What'd ya do, read all nite? I have to admit that I was on the same wave length you were on about ESA and the need to reform a "good law, gone bad," until I learned about that dang treaty!!!
With that and the imagery of the isolated Earthrise over the dead moonscape in 1970... sure enough, we immediately got "Earth Day," "Earth Island Institute" "Space Ship Earth," etc., etc., etc. That was the half way point in time from the treaty ratification and now!
I'll say one thing for the Born Again Pagans... they sure are patient!!! Even the Devil moves faster than that, knowing he hath but a short time!!!
