Thank you for this. As I sit here, I am beside a shelf that holds artifacts from Olduvai Gorge, dating 1.88 to 1.78 million years old, an important era in brains in development, to Neanderthal from France, about 40,000 years old, down to our branch of the human family. I am fascinated with the evolution of the brain, the the roles that various layers & regions play. Lately I have been pondering the roles of the collective unconsciousness in the troubling behaviors w are witnessing.

We are in a heap of trouble. But we can pull through this difficult time.
