Accountability Starts at Home (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I wrote a Note yesterday about the Cornell frat house gang rape that went like this:Unpopular opinion: In addition to demanding the frat boys at Cornell get arrested, I think we need to start charging their parents, too, just like we do with school shooters. If you raised a predator and set them loose on a college or high school community, you should face some accountability. I’m betting these aren’t the first incidents these boys have perpetrated.It got over 300 likes and 20+ comments at this w
Advertising Captures the Zeitgeist. Which Means We're Fucked. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
From 1982--fresh out of college--to 2009, I spent my first career in advertising. (I’m not mad if you do the math. Yes, I’m in my mid-60s.) I worked in places like Ogilvy & Mather in NYC, Mullen in Boston, and both Grey and McCann in San Francisco.

It's The End of the World As We Know It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The climate change chickens are coming home to roost. Disasters of epic proportions are happening more frequently and more intensely with no end to them in sight. The Nepal flash flood (which seems too tame a name for it given the tsunami-like proportions of the damage and loss of life) was caused by a a huge chunk of glacier falling off a mountainside.. Here’s how it was described by a climate change scientist:<bloc
