Hey Liudmila, thank you for your comments. Sounds like you have found a great niche to grow within. I wish my brain could handle that many languages. English often is difficult enough!

Huxley's book was written 64 years ago.

Are we doomed? Some days I wonder. Here in America, we hear each day, largely from our government and the news media that Russia is on the verge of losing in Ukraine. And then switch channels or hours of the day, and it sounds like Russia will prevail.

My father was a USAF B-52 pilot and a military historian. For much of my life I've heard the concept of Mutually Assured Destruction. Some political leaders used to just call it MAD.
