I found this a Fascinating Read. Wonderful when experienced people perform eloquently.

The comments near the are insightful as well, and several amusing, like the recipe for Goose Stew. Unbelievable that there's a bird sanctuary so close to La Guardia's take off flight path!

I wouldn't get too worked up about the bird sanctuaries.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, though. Except, predictably, the few comments that give "god" credit (for a still river or whatever). The religions that posit a non-interfering god are on the right track. If you see godly action in a water landing gone right, you have to see godly action in landings gone wrong. Your god, then, is arbitrary, capricious, and cruel. Praise be!
