Sadly, we didn't seem to learn much about peace and you from from our history that we violently expanded West. I don't know what it is going to take for Americans to get the idea.
All I can say is that my life is a whole lot more stree-free and peaceful living in Europe. Sort of like the protagonist in Thomas Manns' "The Magic Mountain", I almost feel like I am in a very peaceful sanitorioum. "Schiller sprach zu Goethe, Steck in dem Arsch die Flöte! Goethe sagte zu Schiller, Mein Arsch ist kein Triller!"
No regrets, that's for sure. Pogo: We have met the enemy, and he is us.
