ay, moving on. I've told you about something I call the Adams law of slow-moving disasters, and it goes like this. When humanity can see a huge problem coming from a long ways away, we have a 100% track record of handling it. For example, we could see far in advance that it would be hard to feed all the people if the population kept growing, but we figured out how to make more food and yeah, we did a pretty good job of it. We thought we would run out of oil but we figured out how to frack and how to find more oil and build solar panels, etc. So it looks like we'll get through it. Likewise with climate change. Looks like it's the end of the world if the scientists, the consensus of them, are right. But I'm pretty confident that we'll figure out workarounds and we'll be fine.

But as the time that you have to fix a problem gets compressed, the shorter and shorter you have, well then it gets a little more uncertain. The more time you have, the more likely you'll figure it out. But what about voting this year? The question is whether the voting mechanisms will be secure. Will the mail-in voting give us a credible result or a non-credib
