| [M]y conception of liberty does not permit an individual citizen or a group of citizens to commit acts of depredation against nature in such a way as to harm their neighbors and especially to harm the future generations of Americans. If many years ago we had had the necessary knowledge, and especially the necessary willingness on the part of the Federal Government, we would have saved a sum, a sum of money which has cost the taxpayers of America two billion dollars. |
| ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945), U.S. president. FDR Speaks authorized edition of speeches, 1933-1945 (recordings of Franklin Roosevelt’s public addresses), side 4, address at Bonneville Dam (Sept. 28, 1937), ed. Henry Steele Commager, Introduction by Eleanor Roosevelt, Washington Records, Inc. (1960). In this dedication speech for the Bonneville Dam the President spoke to a favorite theme concerning the need for conservation practices and public power projects. He argued that the drought and resultant dust bowl could have been avoided had there been water and conservation practices in place instead of greedy exploitation of natural resources. ~ |

| You doctors who more execution have done With powders and bolus with potion and pill, Than hangman with halter, or soldier with gun Than miser with famine; or lawyer with quill; To kill us the quicker, you forbid us malt liquor, Till our bodies consume and our faces grow pale; But mind it, what pleases, and curse all diseases Is a comforting dose of good ale! |
| ~Gemthorpe, 1790 ~ |

| Quote of the moment |
| If the evolution of the human species is entirely a matter of the environment and the modification of genes, chromosomes, and so forth, then there really isn't place for karma at all. It simply wouldn't fit because all the effects would presumably be entirely accounted for by their physical constituents. However, cells evolve to become more and more complex and then later evolve into human beings. There are many options, some seventy trillion, that one human could become, based on the assortment of the parental genes. Yet just one option is taken, and if the question is asked - why? - then karma is directly related to this question. |

| Let beeves and home-bred kine partake The sweets of Burn-mill meadow; The swan on still St. Mary's Lake Float double, swan and shadow! |
