This was a good idea to break this down into topical sections. Maybe someone who is dazed by history will wake up to the energy piece that may be affecting them directly.

Thanks. As I responded to Ludwig beneath 'Part 6':

"Of course, you are right in that to folk like me (and you and three unsubscribers) is has less value. Many people do not have a 2hr attention span, or the time to reflect on the topics. So rather than them possibly have a reflection on the interview rather than the subjects, I'm breaking it down. If it cumulatively means 5000 views, and 1000 gave a damn, I'd count that as small victory.

On Tuesday, life back to normal. I will return to Middle East summary that day, and Russia/Ukraine summary on Wednesday. From next month, I'll drop to only 2 posts per week because this is exhausting, and I would like time to write bigger articles that are less reactionary."

I'd now also add that one day people, whether it be in months or a year, may search for something by topic. Someone may be interested in NATO and not history. That would be more effective if search engines played fair but the fact that half my post views are not on the day's topic gives it a chance.
