Persistance Pays Off

Finally, I figured out how to leave a comment on a blog. I did not realize that the User Name wanted my AOL address. I don't know why they don't indicate this on all comment forms. I found it out by accident when I went to my own blog.

It is always exciting to discover the answer to what you are trying to learn. Today I listened to an excellent professor talk about literature in the Depression. Some of the poetry sounded like what has been going on recently.

The speaker talked about socialism, and eugenics. At first I did not know what eugenics was, and then I learned it is the science of improving the species. Today I guess it is illegal, but during the Depression they actually operated on people who were considered morons , and the surgery was done to stop their ability to have children. This was done without the consent of the patient.

Sounds like the same type of things done during the Holocaust. It seems that civilization is not civil yet.

My blog counter seems totally inaccurate, so I am overlooking the numbers. Evidently, my counter can't count. Happy New Year to all!

Fancy Nancy Triumphant!!!
