my thoughts exactly. I have a good 40 years to go myself, but if it were not for children to care for I could shorten it (as do many) by drinking more and starting smoking again. Having worried over the problems since Carter was in office, and seen everything consistently go in the wrong direction, it is hard not to expect massive suffering - the Olduvai Cliff, the Inevitable Malthusian Collapse, or what have you.
