Laura, if you search for your name in the search box, you’ll find my comment of the Jensen symposium — it’s just a few posts back.

I haven’t done any major redesigning, just a few little tweaks. I’ve been meaning to put my c.v. up for a long time but have just never gotten around to it. I’m not really looking for a job, so it would just be showing off anyway.

Pablo: Agreed.

If McCain wins the election, what will be added to my long lists of grievances is that the decision will have been made by people who have been persuaded to believe that a “community organizer” is a bad thing. It will be a sound-bite election (perhaps no different than most in the past) and the mass of Americans will gladly be duped.

John McCain can lead us into the 20th Century! This election we have the choice between making history, and repeating it.

My own political background is small, but it has included voting for awhile, and I happened to notice you are putting time into election discussion. (Also, I think you are redesigning this blog – it says the q.v. is “to come”.) The newspaper in Tacoma carries the Tad Bartimus syndicated column. Her column from Sunday, listed as “Say Goodbye to Superwoman” at her website, Tad Bartiumus.com, claims Sarah Palin lost her right to blame the media for interruptions to her children’s privacy because she made the decision to pursue her career while not spending time with them. This is not exactly what I was thinking – children who are numbers in a series of pregnancies should realize it is the age of the mother that seems to affect the possibility of birth defects – this concern blurs the actual reason why Planned Parenthood and Zero Population Growth have mattered, which is of course the World Overpopulation Crisis. I think the vice presidential choice creates a distraction from that genuine concern. Are you redesigning the blog? By the way, I think in earlier archives you mention a symposium about some of my poems at Pleiades magazine.
