..have you ever been on the ground, wandering thru one of those peaceful rice terraces you are always so lyrical over, and then, Bingo! There comes a helicopter hovering over your head, just checking things out from 'another perspective'??? Have you ever stood under a helicopter and gotten a whiff of its' exhaust fumes? Are you aware that Balinese have a horror of people's private parts being higher than their heads, and that until about 10-15 years ago no Balinese in his /her right mind would have built a second story on his house?? Put that in your Bible. How does the old expression go? 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions.'
