Today in History

• 1970:The first “Earth Day” was “celebrated.” 42 years later, more doubt than propaganda exists on whether humans have any impact at all on the environment we live in (atmosphere and warming more than just unsightly garbage).

Inspirational Quote of the Week:

“Doublethink – to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed.”
