So its technology that usually brings us new periods and epochs. Will 'GREEN' technologies, sustainability, carbon neutral and renweable energy sources bring a new age..Post postmodern. Neomodern or Ecomodern.

An age where consumption has no status? Now… its all about how Big is your fridge? You need cars, more than one and big ones, mind. TV's you need them big an'all, all over your house. The further away your holidays the better. Lighting in the garden and if you dont have patio heaters then the neighbours start talking!

So the economy needs us all to buy this stuff, so people have jobs and the world goes round. Growth.

Consumer and consumption, I dont see it changing. Can staus be measured by something else?

It's a rare thing for Cosmo to give ground to other large alpha male dogs, in fact he does'nt (usually it's just the one particular Alsation and once or twice I have had to do my impression of a ref seperating the fighters in a heavyweight boxing match). But today a Giant Shnauzer made him retreat very hastilly. Then Cosmo stood his ground and decided to see what was coming?…and make a stand…..Just some sniffing of the niffy parts of a dogs anatomy. No violence, no noise just a stiff posturing. It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. In fact it was not bad at all. I hope Cosmo saw it that way as well.

Perhaps things seem worse than they are, and things will work out just fine.
