We prefer to communicate in the language of solutions, but overcoming our societal worst nightmares and excesses necessitates a detailed examination of the opportunities and constraints. Public commenting, adding your opinion, corrections, kudos, lambastes, and announcements, is encouraged. The answer is never one voice but a voluminous, democratic chorus, sometimes sounding like wolves howling in half-tone-shrieks, other times perfect silence. Always with peace.
