Japan: A few weeks ago Calbee announced that they were running out of coloured ink due to disrupted oil supplies. Their no-colour crisp packets have just hit the shelves and must be popular coz this was the last one. Ebi-sen packets are still in full colour. . .
The low oil supply is terribly affecting all countries of the world. What actually could be done about it?
Have cuttlefish, squid, and octopuses disappeared from the sea, and have carrots, spinach, and beets stopped growing? :)

Nikolai Gavrilovich Chernyshevsky, the author of the novel "What is to be Done?", knows this best :)

Thanks for the hint. I happen to be reading Mikhail Bulgakov's Master and Margarita at the moment. I started reading Russian literature four or five years ago, but haven't got around to Chernyshevsky yet, although I read Turgenev's Fathers and Sons a year or two ago.

If you have a garden, spend your time on something more useful than reading the thoughts of a system-addicted drug addict who came up with something in a drunken stupor... this applies to many classic Russian writers, and Bulgakov is no exception :) Any Gospel will give a broader understanding of what's going on.
