Opening Thoughts
"Human-nature will not change. In any future great national trial, compared with the men of this, we shall have as weak, and as strong; as silly and as wise; as bad and good. Let us, therefore, study the incidents of this, as philosophy to learn wisdom from, and none of them as wrongs to be revenged."
Abraham Lincoln, November 10, 1864
"Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs."
Carl Sagan
"Cause the good ole days weren't
Always good
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems"
Billy Joel, 1983
"let Facts be submitted to a candid world"
The Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776
