Again and Again

I didn’t mean to do any retrospectives on the occasion of the new year, but writing the last post got me thinking about the past a little more than I’d like. The following anonymous quote sums up 2005 for me (link).
Today, I saw my country favorably compared to Indonesia and Thailand, (always our traditional benchmarks of infrastructural success) while the elderly die of thirst in the street.
Not that I want to be overly obvious or naive, but the one thing that the past year should have taught us is that the phrase “never again” really ought to mean something. Interpret that how you will.
