How are people coping with what seems a break down in our societal fabric? Digging in, holding back? Working for change, working within? They are all legitimate ways to deal with crises.

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived" - Thoreau worked for me when I was 25 and is a constant drumbeat today...
