No news is good news...

It occurs to me that this old adage is very true and I think explains the problems we face with the 24/7 news cycle culture...

There just isn't that much happening in the world that is important in the longer term scheme of things!

Stuff not happening is really good... for everyone - except people who work in the media.

We should all spend less time on the unimportant stuff happening now and spend more time looking at a much broader historical sense of things.

If you get a chance listen to some "History according to Bob" - I can't remember how I found him - but I'm glad I did - some little gems that put a lot of stuff into perspective...
