Ever have the feeling we’re behaving like all is lost?  Well, here’s the truth.  We’re in mourning, yes.  But that’s because we made some big mistakes, we lost many many people we love, we don’t like war and we don’t hate our enemies.  We just want to live a nicer life.

(All right – this is a very far-fetched comparison.  But when I took the Titantic tour in Cobh last month I thought, there’s got to be something I can salvage from this tourist trap – and that’s my ticket.  So here it is.)
