Well, I thought your comment was good, Jose. Keep 'em coming. And maybe the north is creating a society so complex it can't survive. E. M. Forster wrote, in the 1920s, about the collapse of a technological civilization much like the nort'ès, "The Machine Stops" My Canadian intellectual heritage tells me that technology drives history. If we can't keep the technology running our history, anyway, will take a sudden sharp turn..

Thanks, Keith.

Thanks, Cheryl.
