There's gotta be others, right? Funny thing is every gym etc. I know gets over-crowded in January and thins out in February. I was joking about new years' resolution recently. Mine this year is air-conditioning. I mean it, it gets humid around here.

But I like my sports! I'm there in the gym in March after the self-improving folk stop attending. If I dive, I want to see ocean creatures in the bright shallows, not set depth records. I'll hike the nice trail up, thanks, you free solo.

Way to read between the lines.. There is probably a deeper meaning here that the soft filter Bubble of Bliss will eventually pop to great surprise. Sometimes a little discomfort goes a long way!

I heard a theory the other day - I forget where - that SF/F inversely reflects the level of scarcity in the time it was written. Shangri-La was invented during the Great Depression, and Firefly and BSG during our modern consumerist age.
