Some News items. But mainly personal opinions that may be unreasonable, without warrant, meaningless and shameless but relentless and consistent as a blinking light. Of course there is that story about Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier, the guy who discovered and named oxygen & hydrogen and executed during the reign of terror. He purportedly asked a servant to see if his eyes blinked after he was beheaded. No one could prove the story. But maybe we can see after death.

On the Norwegian killer
This was cold-hearted, calculated political murder not the acts of a mad man or a terrorist. Madman & other psychological statements about his state of mind are totally irrelevant. As to terrorist, it's an over-used catch all phrase used when states aren't responsible for an attack and individual actions are not understood. This vicious act, brutal and heart-breaking for families and friends of the victims and traumatic for decent people everywhere is in a class of its own.
