Great article on political violence. Plenty among us with a knowledge of history have seen this coming and I've read some thoughtful warnings, all of which have been lost (or ignored), in the storm.

ReplyDeleteWashing machine ? When we were kids we had to walk barefoot to the laundromat, in the snow, carrying vast bundles of people's washing, uphill, in the rain, with only 4 toes on each foot, on hot tarmac, and with too few coins.
