drastic situation life is any more .. you're right, though alexcoppo.

my son was trying to put together wedding invitiations this morning, and we don't really hang out with many people. most of the relatives we haven't seen for years and years and rarely talk to them.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together.
All things connect......Chief Seattle, 1854
