Mickey and Sparrow Reach Their Quota
On Jan. 26, 2004, I sent out this link to an article about a looming environmental crisis:
Does anyone know anything else about this? Is this what we need before
people react?

-----------------------
Sparrow, the funniest poet/presidential candidate on earth, replied:
my goodness! I had no inkling the age of Ice might be so near.
Sage snow,
sparrow

To which, I said:
Well, the article was a tad alarmist...but here’s what an activist
friend of mine said in response: “Yes, we need to act as if our survival
depends on the integrity of our actions. There are a lot of alarming
statistics, even if only 1/4 of them are true we better kick ass.”
Digging out,

Sparrow replied with a quote and, over the next few months, we shared the following exchange posted here for your reading pleasure. Just click on “more”:
“alarmism in the defense of popular revolt is no vice.” -
