Excellent read that had me guessing and surprised me often, even though Glenn is no Tom Clancy!

I hesitated before posting my copy of this book on this site because I was torn between wanting it as a reference for all the events noted and wanting to make sure everyone who want to read it is able to.

I decided to post it, and hope I won't forget what it had to say. I know why I used to buy bottled water - I was thirsty and didn't want the calories in soda, nor the alkaline taste of most tap water in Texas. However, using the phenomena of bottled water sales as an example of the Overton Window theory is brilliant! I do believe that we need to be reminded to exercise our common sense and to develop it if we have lost it or were last in line when it was handed out.

No need for a tin foil hat to enjoy this one!
