There's going to be a new Farmer's Market opening up on the front lawn of Phipps on Wednesdays (from 2:30 - 6:30) starting in June. I'm hoping it will be a bit bigger than the one down in Oakland proper, but I haven't really been able to find any articles about it yet.

I've not said much aloud about the idea that's been growing for the past few years that somehow vaccines have been causing problems, especially by causing autism. Personally... I found it fishy and very difficult to believe, but I hadn't done any research into why the idea was so popular. Apparently, though, other people have ( Read more... )

Took more than 2 years, but I finally have the newest version of the Traceable Art up online. Hopefully it won't take nearly as long for the next one. Especially since I'm hoping to have the artists' names on that one.

Happy anniversary, demonlurking!!!!!

Six years, and you still put up with me. I don't claim to understand, but I'm smart enough to appreciate it ^_^

So, I generally try to keep politics out of my blog. I don't need to annoy folks I otherwise enjoy talking to.

However... I am a raging liberal and I get topic/petition e-mails from MoveOn.org. This afternoon, I got an e-mail from them that presses my biggest hot-button issue _really, really_ hard. Now, I do try to check things out when I get e ( Read more... )
