" That's pretty amazing. It shows you that life is extremely creative in finding a way to eke out an existence."
Now class that last sentence is the MAIN IDEA which you can carry away with you for the rest of your life. Even H.P. Lovecraft's " Rats in the Walls " find " a way to eke out an existence ".
So do the poor and the homeless. Life is tough. Just a little REASON can improve the lot of most human beings. But Malthus was also right. How much of us is enough ?
We survived severe climate change in the past- even the Great Plague. But will we survive our own " abundance " in the 21st century ?
