Great Regulars: I don't think peace is a happy delusion,

but it's not a given, either. Peace is like poetry: We have to work for it. We have to study, to labor, to gather our colleagues in a circle and discuss what works and what doesn't, what we need more of, less of, what to do next. We have to learn from others who have succeeded. And when it finally comes, all that hard work is worth it.
