where in the west everybody is the same. so it is more an equality and more a sense of ownership in your city, because you helped found it, you helped put the civic government together. >> fascinating. what is really amazing about this book as you point out, how immigrants didn't just come to what at that time is considered urban centers like san francisco or like los angeles,. >> well, los angeles wasn't an urban center. >> but people ended up in places like marysville california, places like salem oregon, people ended up in lots of places you wouldn't even today think that jews even went to, to begin with. >> san francisco was the hub and everybody came in through san francisco because it is of course a major port but economies drove people all over marysville was a major town because it was on the river. and that was how transportation was handled in the mid-19th century, and you had all the little gold camps around marysville so all goods in and out of those gold camps went through marysville so marysville was actually a

in the west you heard an interesting session just an hour or so back on the mountain watershed issue and of course, one of the principal differences there is snow lines become compared to present day or the climate that are tradition based on snow climbs are going to be higher and they raise about half a kilo meter or so degrees celsius. 6 degrees,c, perky lom tear. i don't want to try to do this on the podium. that has the effect of reducing the natural reservoir snow we could usually use in spring and summer and liberates more water immediately which is the flood water that you heard the director of the california water resource s talk about. we saw the global average picture but this is what's happened in the west part of america since world war ii, we've seen this large area - this happens to be a time averaged march, april and may. that's our classical springtime in climate terms. this red shading means we've warmed welltive to a longer term average by something like a degree celsius to as much as two or three degrees celsius and that's in central or west canada. so, we have see

the conflict such as it is between the west and islam will leave for a moment the definition of those terms seems to me that the conflicts that western countries have with islamic countries precisely are ideological and not civilizational conflicts we only have to look at which islamic countries are affected we're talking of course about iraq iran and afghanistan but there are many other islamic countries which are not affected by any conflict with the west the whole of north africa turkey saudi arabia indonesia the list goes on these conflicts such as they are are fairly straight forward diplomatic political and to some extent ideological conflicts largely associated with the middle east and problem so i really don't think that the conflicts that have broken out bear out the civilizational paradigm it should be added by the way that the biggest conflict in world history since the second world war is one that nobody hardly ever mentions and that is the war in the congo which has claimed millions of lives it's a far higher death toll than any of the other conflicts that we usually talk
