“Viruses of Mass Destruction”

The war of words between China and the USA took a turn for the worst, when the neo-con loaded Biden Administration tasked the CIA with the verification of the origins of the Covid virus by insinuating it could have escaped from a Chinese laboratory where it had been modified. This is not a question of science but of politics. Its not about whether or not this is a laboratory caused pandemic, but of demonising China one way or the other. That is what the CIA does, it is both a spying agency and an agent-provocateur, one which tends to find causes celebre to justify war. read more

Returning to normal

Here at Lakeside, Ohio, things look pretty close to normal. Hand shaking and hugs. Very few masks. Several programs inside Hoover Auditorium due to bad weather (but that's a start). Restaurants with normal seating. The dock is closed but that's because of a 2 day storm with 9' waves that possibly damaged it and threw benches and light poles into Lake Erie.
