Back in 1985, in the midst of my second psychotic break, I had this epiphany that if everyone would only work together violence would be eliminated and so much good could be accomplished.  The image I had was of a herd of turtles (tortugas) being an irresistible force for good if they would only travel in the same direction.

Thirty-four years later, when I think about the existential task of humankind to reverse global warming, the image of all us turtles traveling in the same direction to save the planet comes to mind.

This blog is a place for me to publish my thoughts and musings after 66 years on this planet.  Kind of a World According to Gottstein.   I will probably change the title of this blog and delete this page once I get going.
