    No, your brain is not small. I appreciate your bringing this story to our attention.

    Bottom line: post No Tresspassing signs, and do not let them in without a warrant.

    I’m an older writer trying to break into the inductry with my debut novel. I think older writers definitely have the experience to write more insightful and indepth material than someone younger. However, I would never want to be stereotyped if I was young or old. Anyway, here’s to older writers (clink) may we persevere.

  5. Elizabeth, you’re a real gem! I love the weblog—the writing is spacious, observant, touching.

    Thanks for sharing your gifts. We owe you.

    However, developing countries are most at risk of climate change not because they will experience greater climate change, but because they lack adaptive capacity to cope with its impacts. ,
