I wonder if we shall ever, ever look back with any fondness on this time.. the way folks do about WW2, the 30s, and the 50s. Or are we just too far gone? I hope not.. keep comin' by.. its never the same thing twice. Now I have to go nurse my sore brain!<BR/>DavidIris&Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08131960635510843593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26527197.post-8837291147081041452007-07-16T19:53:00.000-04:002007-07-16T19:53:00.000-04:00I sometimes wonder how things would've been in the...I sometimes wonder how things would've been in the McGovern WH..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26527197.post-48144720796277439642007-07-16T19:36:00.000-04:002007-07-16T19:36:00.000-04:00David,it was I who said that blogging made my brai...David,it was I who said that blogging made my brain sore. The only blog I tend to go to is the other David's.(DAH). I find his writings about photography, and those of his students quite interesting. Which is not to say that your writings are not. Today I recalled that you had contacted me via the DAH blog and thus came the impulse to visit yours! I read of the Mcgovern re union with much interest and also with sadness..What happened? I grew up in Apartheid South Africa and this country seems to be heading in that direction..<BR/>I have been active in campaigns both here and in SA since I was thirteen.I must say that the coming Silly Season fills me with the kind of fear, loathing and dread I experienced during South African election campagns pre- 1994. Obama the next Mcgovern? I dont think so. I had occasion to be around him quite a bit as a photographer for our gubernatorial campaign (Massachusetts) last year and I think he is too junior as of now. Who knows? 2012 perhaps?<BR/>BTW: Your post- Katrina pics in NGeo. are wonderfulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26527197.post-61708104812341051852007-07-15T19:29:00.000-04:002007-07-15T19:29:00.000-04:00Walt says:Iris, you're a very lucky person to have...Walt says:<BR/><BR/>Iris, you're a very lucky person to have known and worked along side such great people!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
