Generallly I agree with you. I just sympathize with Blake's impatience in
certain situations. I think we have all experienced how annoying it can be
when you have to persuade others about something that for you goes without
saying. You, for instance, probably feel that some environmental issues are
not negotiable.
I can't think of any, right now. Of course, I think we're going to have
a tremendous man-made natural disaster do to our lack of environmental
concern, but that's our species' tough luck and if people won't listen
to reason, Id rather have us drown free than in fetters.
