Precisely right.

I'm among the least marketable simply because I tend to fear less than others by nature. I don't have any unusual fears except perhaps the fear of public speaking/dancing (I started a dance party the weekend before last with the aid of beer).

That's not to say I'm not susceptible to all the things humans are; only that I'm markedly less susceptible to them, tending to delay action rather than be reactive. If my threat perception of GW changes AND there is a viable course of personal action I can take as an individual, I'll do it and proclaim I had previously been in error.

In the meantime, I'll continue exploring my interest in efficiency as it relates to my overall frame of viewing life as a series of interconnected optimization problems.
