It's not ALL doom and gloom!

Three items from this morning's 'Guardian' - two depressing - here and here - one mildly cheering.

"Today, there's both bad news and good news. First, the bad news: there isn't any good news. Now for the good news: you don't have to listen to the bad news."

As James Lovelock says, "Enjoy life while you can. Because if you're lucky it's going to be 20 years before it hits the fan."

Eat, drink, and be merry. For tomorrow we die?
