Do Americans want to remember history?  Remembering John Marshall:

How many have been given a "free ride" with no scrutiny from the justice system and the media??

First it was waterpower, then it was coal fired steam power.  3000 horse power boilers feeding line shafting through out a huge multi storied brick New England Mill.   Machines like these - drill presses, planers, lathes, - all turning, mechanically powered through line shafts and leather belting.

 H5N1 is a secret - well, what's secret is how it was mutated....

 As I age

 I try to force myself - on every issue (on multiple levels) - to think backward - to think upside down. To think like I was crazy. To think like I was evil minded. To think like I was rational and above it all . To not think and jerk my knee.   OUT OF THE BOX!!!   What's the answer?.... 

These analogue TV's dumped in front of book donation boxes are a lucid example of how our government - local, state, and federal -  miserably fails us.

Mr. Dimora was always about 15 minutes late to meetings he attended - I was there.   Just a  little slap in the public's face, no matter.
