No. This is GOOD global warming; the kind that brings people together and kindles their spirits, then fans the flames of goodness and mercy and open-handed sharing that feeds as many as accept the gifts offered therein. This is a celebration of the gifts of words; words that greet lives and nestle in to create change.
