Brian Eno writes columns, too
Everything I've read by Brian Eno has been very insightful. This article is no exception. Here's a "quote":
How exactly did it come about that, in a world of Aids, global warming, 30-plus active wars, several famines, cloning, genetic engineering, and two billion people in poverty, practically the only thing we all talked about for a year was Iraq and Saddam Hussein? Was it really that big a problem? Or were we somehow manipulated into believing the Iraq issue was important and had to be fixed right now - even though a few months before few had mentioned it, and nothing had changed in the interim.
He writes it "Aids" instead of "AIDS" because he's British.
