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.

My Grandmother
If my Grandmother was still alive she'd be 116. I spent my boyhood years living with my grandmother and listening to her talk about how things were. Believe me you get great perspective if you pay attention to the old folks. I still credit her beliefs passed on to me as the ones that have carried me this far. She was an immigrant with third grade education and a Phd mind.
