I made a photograph of a garden in Kyoto, the Zen garden, which is a rectangle. But a photograph taken from any one point will not show, well it shows a rectangle, but not with ninety degree angles. ↗

It just seems to me that the world's kind of a mess, and the more messy it gets, the more interested I am in escapist fare.

I'm eager to get away from them. ↗

The Administration should never have walked away from the Kyoto Treaty. Global warming is real and it is here today. The facts aren't the issue. The policy is the issue. I think the Administration's policy on global warming is dead wrong. ↗
