And delighted that you've got more of this bubbling liquid waiting to be sampled.<br /><br />Writing from New York, on a day that I was in and out of doors several times, it seemed to me that every time I got home and switched on either tv or laptop, something strange had occurred either here or elsewhere. Maybe it was always like this, but for centuries, no one really knew about massive historic changes during the time they actually got the chance to live their lives. If their lives were good, this was good (and this is probably still true now.)<br /><br />On the other hand, besides there being a fist, there's a chance that our additional access to some information just might allow us to explore some historic changes that do apply to us while we are still breathing.<br /><br />Hoping this made some sense.<br />Best wishes.<br />Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-11934360068710194652016-06-30T21:22:21.547+01:002016-06-30T21:22:21.547+01:00I think we've been through this before.
