Still catching up...

John Gulick mentioned that that while the Teamster victory was important &
good, no one acknowledged that UPS represents the highly dispersed nature
of American ecnomic space, rushing stuff all over the place using using
fossil fuels on nature-killing roads. I just got back from the URPE summer
conference, where the (dare I say hegemonic?) social democratic faction
spoke at length of raising growth rates, but only in footnotes and asides
about the ecological consequences of doing so. And as every
deconstructionist schoolkid knows, often the most interesting parts of a
text are the ones that dissimulate, like footnotes and asides.
