It's much appreciated. I agree that thoughtful people see too much attention being paid to "saving" wild creatures while people suffer without help. There are natural threats that need addressing, but many perils facing us are caused by ourselves, including that of global warming. In various guises, man's greatest threat is man. Down-trodden we may appear, but we're not taking it lying down. Let us have confidence that reason, resolve and right will defeat ignorance, however well-funded or entrenched.

You have your National party and we our Democrats and all around the world we need a new battle cry. Let the whales fend for themselves, SAVE THE HUMANS!
