In the meantime, while on the plane, I read "Warm Bodies" by Isaac Marion and was thoroughly impressed. The author very effectively equates being apathetic to being like a zombie and his zombie apocalypse was created by a human world gone numb. In his view, our society is slowing dying due to human indifference... will we wake up in time? I hope so...
Here's someone else's review, well said, "I believe this book is really reality-based as most Americans are zombies today. Yes, few Americans can comprehend any written material other than zombie books (and the infrequent paranormal romance, or magical-type books). Zombie is as zombie does, which accurately captures the "American spirit" or willful ignorance of today." (quoted from here)
As far as indifference goes, I am absolutely NOT indifferent to this advertisement that apparently airs on Russian TV. WOW! If we got to see ads like this one, I might actually watch TV!
