“They go on in strange paradox, decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent. …Owing to past neglect, in the face of the plainest warnings, we have entered upon a period of danger. The era of procrastination, of half measures, of soothing and baffling expedience of delays, is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences. ... We cannot avoid this period, we are in it now.”

---Winston Churchill

Too bad you have to pay $15 online to the AAAS/Science magazine to actually read a copy of the article itself. I'm somewhat concerned this article may imply a call for a form of "new world order" wherein the haves become the enforcers on the resource-rich have-not nations. The question of sovereignty arises, but that may become moot in the face of the long emergency. The future ever darkens...
