Lascaux Cave

This photograph is from a cave in Lascaux, France. I think it's amazing. Early humans fascinate me. They lived during the Ice Age and ran around wearing furs hunting and gathering. And here we are flipped out about global warming. I'm not trying to minimize its effects on us. I do think we need to green our world.
But human beings are highly adaptable and we've put up with so much worse weatherwise. We're a lot tougher than we think we are.
What I think is particularly beautiful about early human life is that everyone was needed and wanted within a culture. Nobody was a throw-away. In today's world there's such a drive to be exclusive or separated from. We've learned to segregate ourselves. We have to create laws to keep ourselves from doing that.
All the reality shows are like that. They're all based on the principle of exclusion, whether it's judging somebody's talent by subjective judges or voting somebody off an island or a show. In this world brimming over with violence, I think we need a few shows that are about including others and inviting somebody on to your island. Then you can build a treehouse together with another set of hands (the work is so much easier) and sing and dance under the sun.
