I was I/M'ing with a co-worker last night.
When he is anxious about something (family issue, work issue, or world event issues), he sees that I am online and starts a dialogue. He always starts out with small talk and then segues into the topic that is on his mind. He has now done this many times. I do not mind - but find it curious.
Last night's topic eventually settled on the state of world affairs. He and I earlier had been chatting about him taking his kids to Disneyland a few weeks ago (just like I had). He said something about having to get that out of the way since things seemed to be deteriorating in Russia, etc. And that he was worried about 2017.
When he passed thru our group on a rotation a few years ago, I had no inkling of 2017. I have only been on the 2017 kick for less than a year since finding Dewey Bruton's timeline and the Rabbi Ben Samuel quote among other things.......
So, anyway very interesting. I asked another follow-on question and he said he felt that 2017 was it for a long time. Interesting indeed.
