random quotes ... to amuse, inspire, enrage:
  Capitalism robs you and makes a wage slave of you. The law upholds and protects that robbery. The government fools you into believing that you are independent and free. In this way you are fooled and duped every day of your life.

The seed vault I wrote about last year has opened, ahead of schedule. (NYT 2/26) Bent Skovmand would be proud.

    Yes, my father would be proud. It is interesting the legacy he has left since his passing. It has been wonderful to read about him and to know that others share an interest.
