what you get here

This is not a blog which opines on current events. It rather uses incidents, books (old and new), links and papers to muse about our social endeavours.
So old posts are as good as new! And lots of useful links!

The Bucegi mountains - the range I see from the front balcony of my mountain house - are almost 120 kms from Bucharest and cannot normally be seen from the capital but some extraordinary weather conditions allowed this pic to be taken from the top of the Intercontinental Hotel in late Feb 2020

Leonard Cohen RIP

For the past decade, Leonard Cohen's songs have captured me......it was only a few weeks ago that I enjoyed the youtubes shown below.....one of them shows the most loving interaction between singers I have ever seen......

Others show the most thoughtful conversations.........

Thank you Leonard......RIP

his tracks have been playing around us all afternoon - and I salute this website which uses one of his lines as its title -  https://gerryco23.wordpress.com/2016/11/11/goodbye-leonard-you-let-in-the-light-for-us-all/
