"An industrial capitalist society that does not recognize ecological limits but only perpetual economic expansion and has the profit motive as driver, will eventually consume and destroy itself."
"But we will all be taken down with it."

Pittsburgh
So let Pittsburgh always be known as the city where I just run into people. Like Nate Darity. Second time in Pittsburgh with Celeste, second time running into Nate Darity. This time in an Indian restaurant that had Victory Hop Devil on tap, amazingly. Nate is studying for med school.
Then later I'm in this museum and yes, yes that is Hallie Pritts. So we walk around the museum until they kick us out and then get coffee. I ask about everyone we've ever known and Hallie tells me what's going on. She has gigs now, small ones. She's writing her own stuff. I'm impressed. She invites Celeste and I to a party later, but instead we turn in early.
And I ride both ways on the Amtrak, which is collective three and one-half hours late over the weekend. But what's the other option? Hauling out to BWI? No. And good golly did I ever get so much studying down.
