More grass means less forest; more forest less grass. But either-or is a construction more deeply woven into our culture than into nature, where even antagonists depend on one another and the liveliest places are the edges, the in-betweens or both-ands..... Relations are what matter most. ↗

It strikes me as hubris that Universal will buy EMI. What it will do is create a super-major that will have far too much power...
