Four people were killed in the explosions, hundreds were injured. Hundreds of homes and businesses were destroyed or severely damaged. The whole Bay Area is coming together to help these people with supplies, food, clothes, donations and such. The cause *right now* appears to be decaying infrastructure. A 30 inch wide gas pipe--built and maintained by PG&E--broke. And did this damage. PG&E is being super helpful right now, but the local governments are gearing up to take them on. How much of our energy infrastructure right now is decaying and on the point of collapse? The oil pipe on the Kalamazoo river, in Michigan, that burst and spilled over a million gallons of oil into the river was also blamed on infrastructure that was more than fifty years old. We've spent three decades cutting taxes, paring back government and refusing to invest in our country. It's time to reverse that trend before more gas pipes burst.

This is pretty much what my nightmares look like. These hills are just soaked in history and pain and blood and secrets.

On NPR yesterday, after Obama's speech, they had a bunch of NeoCons and conservative politicians critique the speech. No balance, of course, this is NPR after all and all of their political commentary comes from the Right these days. But I was struck that Douglas Feith--one of the architects of the war in Iraq--complained that Obama didn't spend enough time in the speech talking about what we gained from the war, what the successes were. It's appalling. Billions wasted. American credibility destroyed. Our economy nose-dived. Thousands of American troops dead. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis dead. And for what? Hussein is dead, but the country is in shambles. America is broke, but many multi-national corporations have been enriched due to support & rebuilding contracts (Halliburton, Blackwater, etc). Joe. My. God.: The Iraq War May Be Over, But Don't Forget The Lies That Got Us There
