I am a proudly nasty, intelligent, educated, experienced, ambitious woman, and I believe in tolerance, generosity, kindness, science, historical fact, and basic manners: so today I got up and put on pants. There are oceans of fear, pain and bitterness out there, and a hell of a lot of work to do if we’re to take care of each other and our beautiful blue planet. However you voted in Tuesday’s election (or would have, if you could have): please make the world a better place for someone else today.
Hi; very glad to run across your blog. And Amen to the hope you expressed in November. Doubly true in July! Really appreciated The Speckled Monster. Great combination of research and good writing. Something I aspire to, with models like yourself. Best, Erik
