I hated that this story was still true. I am of the age to appreciate that this truth was printed and is still on the desire to read list. Well written. Worse to have lived it.

Distressing to realize that I can do nothing to change it. Disillusioned that the information is poo-pooed by the now generations. Some of them have no idea where they came from, and only use the electrical devices to direct them where they think they are going.
