I definitely am not savvy about this sort of thing, but you sure do a good job writing about it.

My English son-in-law doesn't really see why Americans take politics
so seriously, especially at election time. In England, he says most people know it never makes any real difference who wins, nothing ever really changes. I tell him, we still think change can happen, and it does matter who is sitting in the Oval Office, and what sort of man (or woman, one of these days) it is.
I wonder what CC would say about it.

If Illinoisans pride themselves for having invented that game, it's because they don't know history - it was played when we were still living in caves...

it was only a few select theologians and artists that purported the belief that the earth was flat. most people knew the bible which talks of the sphere of the earth in isaiah. it was washington irving' short story in the early 1800's that really spread the idea of a flat earth. he later admitted to great flights of imagination. sidebar comment to illinois politics. i just pray for the politician's. it's such a distasteful endeavor.
