reading the newspaper this morning I decided to add yet another category to my ever-growing list, the Globe table. The Globe table is my business name, a play on the round table, Shakespeare, and the misguided belief on my part that Latin has no word for world. So I could have called it the world table, but instead decided to go with the Globe table.

I may actually go back to calling this site Gavin Impett’s Globe Table as I go along depending on how the mood strikes me. In this context I’m looking at the Globe table as something in the larger context. For instance stories about the Catholic Church encouraging people to pray before they have sex, retreating ice sheets in Antarctica, water riots in Somalia, prowling kitties in rural America, and green energy in the California desert, don’t seem to have much in common or as parts of the same narrative, but in fact they are part of the same ecosystem, on a planet with an increasingly shrinking availability of resources, all competing in the struggle for existence.

The guiding light of the Globe Table is the connection between seemingly disparate subjects that are a part of the same structure, in short, if it is any one thing it is probably wrong.
