March 29, 2007: Sewage Tsunami in Gaza

I know I'm insensitive in the matter, but people who have to farm dirt (DIRT--the whole freaking world is made of dirt on some level) probably aren't going to have much success raising a non-starving family. I was making this point because the point was made that they were dirt farming in the first place to feed their families, in the process destroying what little they had. To me, tampering the need or desire to procreate only makes sense, and seems much less selfish.

Then again, one of them might be the kid who invents a machine that makes the future of dirt farming a much safer undertaking (insert angels and harp sounds here.)
