Was walking downtown tonight. I think my favorite building on the Minneapolis skyline is the Wells Fargo tower. At night, it’s bathed in gold light that spills on to the surrounding buildings. The effect is pretty cool.
I was on a teleconference with some people in D.C. today. I’ve never been there, but would really like to go someday. We Americans don’t have history on the same scale as Europe or Asia, but we have to take what we can get.
I read that a school board in Georgia voted to include creationism in the curriculum. I’m not going to start bashing creationists (too easy), but why stop at Genesis? Why not toss in some Native American or Hindu creation myths? Or how about some Gaian theory? Equal time, I say! *sigh* I can’t help but marvel at the willingness of perfectly rational adults to remain intellectually stranded in the nineteenth century.
Peace,
Mark
