RE: Karen Kingston Cuts to the Quick of the Evidence in 'Died Suddenly'

You may well be right, sadly.

It is interesting you mention a 50 year cycle, because a plague of bamboo rats strikes S. Asia every 50 years, when a particular species of bamboo fruits and the rats are presented with an enormous glut of food, which causes them to reproduce prolifically. When the fruiting is over, billions of starving rats strip farmer's fields from Bangladesh to India, which causes horrific starvation for the affected people.

Let's hope that cycle is more fixed than the political upheavals that face E. Asia from time to time.

Thanks!

The fact that a plague of bamboo rats strikes S. Asia every 50 years shocked me.😨Dear my respected senior @valued-customer!

Every 50 years in the East Asian world, wars broke out due to famine and epidemics due to population explosion.
As Malthus argued, in order to solve the population explosion, the East Asian world has waged periodic wars.
I remember that wars in Europe probably broke out more often than in East Asia.
On the other hand, North America has enjoyed peace since the American Civil War 150 years ago.

So, East Asians, myself included, call North America the God-blessed world!😄

@roleerob told me envy and jealousy are sins, but I always feel envy and jealousy when I look at America!

I hope my respected American predecessors will forgive me for my overly honest expression!🤣

If you are sinning, my forgiveness is not the one you need to be concerned with ...


Thank you for understanding the rude and awkward English and behavior of an American elementary school student like me!😅Dear my respected senior @roleerob!
