Well deserved win for OKC. Their defense was dominant.

The only time we are touched by the deaths of "others", is when WE are hit with the "damn, that could have been me/us!" feeling.

The rest of times, death around us doesn't even register.

We're a hindsight culture - management of large events is an afterthought for organisations (franchise, government, etc) that have the experience to know better.

Postmortems lead to no substantive action, penalties and changes in policy.

So we will soon see a next one

I think it is easy to get caught up in the mindset of saying that all the problems are external and insurmountable. So it's our politicians, outsiders and others who are the problem.

We need to move on from the urban myth of the Engineer-turned-Farmer

"This narrative...makes us believe, erroneously, that all we need is education and technology to turn things around for farmers in India."

Not true in agri markets distorted by a mashup of mismatched policies
