Title: why hasn't it happened before?
Product review: If Wylie would be alive today, he would have made Fahrenheit 911. It is a book written in the seventies when the public interest in environment was on the rise.Philip Wylie makes some bold predictions in this book. Some of them have gone through, like the Desert war, and other not ... yet, like the river explosion or the explosious farts (you have to read at least that part).On the radio this morning, I heard that a 5 tons of highly noxious gas were released in the atmosphere and eventually made its way in my city. The same thing happens in New York in the book but with more devastating effects.Wylie was very pessimist. The end of civilization started in the eighties in his story. I guess he was off by some decades. We are on that rollercoaster and the train is almost at the top of the ride. I am sure we won't like the way down.This book is half documentary and half a conventional story with characters. Read it and be warned!
