Dave Pollard (1951—present) is a sapling author, heart-sapping blogger, and vivisecting analyst of civilization‘s plight; and, by righthood’s intuition, a spittling ursprach-dissector of social collaboration and learning. His credo is as, as copied from this colophon:
I believe human civilization is in its last century. While we have a responsibility to do the best we can to make the world a better place while we’re here, and to help our descendants cope with the mess we are leaving them, it is really too late for the world to be ‘saved.’
