They are, but often what they make is not. So it is not your bad; it is my bad for my unnatural communication skills, although if it serves an assist in your attempt at manmade humor, let it not be said it is all bad

Despite our egos we are really insignificant in the larger order of things.

I feel this way too, except I think I have to admit that people can make both insignificant and significant contributions to broad natural tendencies insomuch as we are also, as you said, natural. And even if my admission is due to my ego, it is still a valid admission (superego?)

Mankind does seem to punch above it's weight when it comes to polluting and destroying. Stupidity and greed come naturally to man, there is no denying that. One day we will surely find out just how insignificant we really are.

I just got off the phone with a friend living in North Dakota near the Canadian Border. He said that since early this morning the snow has been coming down, it is nearly waist high and is still falling. The temperature is dropping way below zero and the north wind is increasing to near gale force. His wife has done nothing all afternoon but look through the kitchen window and just stare. He says that if it gets much worse, he may have to let her in.

Carbon Regulation Default Swaps. Once really large sums of money enter the Game. It's hard to tell who's right or wrong . Or why it all came about in the first place. Look what happened with Banking and the Credit Default Thing. Not to be paranoid, but big money changes everything. What's a law, what's a truth, what's.......

...Money to someone like me?! Not much at all really!
