Depressing end to the night

Mathgimp's been reading up on Japanese war crimes lately - something he may post about later, and in the meantime you can see his del.icio.us links to the right. When we were talking yesterday I made the (admittedly naive and overly idealistic) comment that I thought we were better as a human race now than we were 60 years ago. Even though articles that I've posted in the past, like this one, turn my stomach, I've been lulled into a false sense of complacency. Anyway, I thought I was wrong once I said it, and after reading this my comment is rescinded in its entirety.

There's still work to do.
Love
me

PS - I do have things to say about GMOs, and about my classes at MC, but they might have to keep for a few days.
