Why Kevin Kelly is optimistic

Kevin Kelly answers the question, "Why are you optimistic?"

I am optimistic because I think that while disease, illness, stupidity, wickedness, problems, and evil fill 49% of the world, health, wisdom, light and goodness fill 51% -- and that tiny 2% difference compounded over time is what makes civilization and cultural.

That thought will stay with me. If some days (and some places) seem to have more than their fair share of the bad stuff, take the long view: the good stuff wins in the end.
