Good news is rarely reported. When it is, no one cares. I recall at another web site I reported and linked to an agreement between the factions in Ireland. They had agreed to stop killing each other ...at least for a while...and it seemed that the killing did stop.
So how many people responded to my post about tentative peace?..no one..., not one response..no one cared

I might add this: As the world reduces the amount of people that live without modern sewage and sanitation facilities, by definition the poverty rate decreases. Now, most would not believe that there are people living without indoor plumbing, but there are. And there are millions of them, but that number is decreasing..thank goodness.
