“Nothing to tell now Let the words be yours, I’m done with mine” By John Perry Barlow with Bob Weir Recorded on Ace (Warner Brothers, 1972) Cora, Wyoming February, 1972 I go months and months without thinking about certain things, including the grateful dead, and then in a wave and a rush, I’ll remember how…

It was a long week, and I was a bit tired and discombobulated, but I think it went over pretty well, we shall see I suppose. Great questions though.

Mark Twain once wrote about a parade of soldiers, recruits mostly joining up to go fight the Mexican border wars after the Civil War, and it goes, “I have no urge to go kill men I’ve never met” but the difference of course is he never saw with his own eyes the evil perpetuated by…

Few people really do their own thinking. As Mark Twain said, the only original thought written down was either Adam or Eve.
