I was at work when a Left Wing VP entered the office and claimed he'd won the Schavio Office Pool. Most everyone cheered. Life in LA and on the Left. I'd say this divide is as deep as it can be; it is between the people who honestly think this is simply an attempt by the Right to turn the country into a theocracy---something I hear all the time---and those people who are spiritually inclined because of some religious teaching in their pasts. I don't pretend to be a deeply sensitive type---I flunked my sensitivity training twice before I cheated and passed---but starving other people to death while we scream about endangered species has me more than a little confused.
