Dick Tener

Animal rescue runs on transport. Volunteers move animals to the places where homes are waiting, and without that chain the whole effort collapses, which is why a post about a friend who does that driving and now needs help is more specific than the usual appeal.

Dick Tener writes as a senior citizen and makes an argument that turns the usual complaint around. Older people talk mainly to each other, at church or the community centre or on the telephone, so whatever they know stays among themselves. Younger people put everything into video and messaging and public feeds. The consequence, he says, is that one group's accumulated judgement never reaches the record at all.

That post is genuinely interesting and it carries an implied instruction to his own generation.

His faith and country writing is fervent and pessimistic about where things are heading, quoting scripture and Santayana on repeating the past.

Read the piece about old and young people talking. It is the argument he makes best.
