I thought I understood cognitive dissonance. But people's willingness to dismiss peer review scientists and physicians with decades of non-political focus on their field in favor of some yahoo talking head is just mind boggling to me. It seems there is no one who could wake people up. It's always kill the messenger. But JFK Jr would be a game changer. Can you imagine? I really want it to be true. Doesn't mean it is. But I REALLY want it to be true.

I am really going to have to take another break though. I can remember thinking, "I just have to wait until the election." Then it was "Inauguration." Then there were some big dates coming in March, I think it was. Then Easter. There is a lot happening and I haven't lost faith. I'm just burned out. And more than ever I really need to once be able to say "I told you so" after 3 years of this. I've stopped datefagging because I have learned the hard way. But I am tired.
