I really appreciate the kind words, Kenny! Sometimes I feel like my work has very little visibility on this platform anymore. I'll be checking out the book by Pinker. I've seen stats and we are living in the safest and in many ways most prosperous time in history but there's a severe disconnect between peoples' perception and what the statistics show. I attribute a lot of that disconnect to the media and socials.

Have you read The Lessons of History by Will & Auriel Durant? That's an interesting read as well. It's a very short book (just over 100 pages) but I've gotten a lot out of it. Again, thanks for engaging and enjoy your week!
