I wonder if you ever considered being a history teacher? :-) You have the ability to make history interesting and that is unusual.

The problem though might be if too many people had the switch, and disagreed on whether it should rain or not! I've watched one or two <i>Get Smart</i> episodes where KAOS figured out ways to control the weather...it wasn't a good thing. (Especially the time when they put up a giant fan at the North Pole to send the world into another ice age...)

What has always struck me about war is the wasted lives and human suffering, but of course, that waste extends so much further. The bitterness that existed for years between neighbours is truly sad. It looks like such a peaceful spot now. I hope that bodes well for the future.Black Jack's Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436115876996209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7376485905771945684.post-86721613268637410342015-08-27T23:44:17.427-05:002015-08-27T23:44:17.427-05:00Interesting post, so much history in your part of ...Interesting post, so much history in your part of the country...
