Time, Where Does It Go?

I cannot believe that it has been so long since I posted. The intervening months have been spent trying to correct a vision problem. Here is the story: years ago I had a cataract removed from my dominant right eye. At the time there was also a beginning cataract in the left eye. I did not bother to have it removed as it was not a problem. Since birth I had an eye condition that did not allow my eyes to focus together; so, I mainly relied on the right eye and would automatically switch to the left when it became tired. A strange malady that was a problem when I was a pre-med student. In class we had to use a microscope and when measuring something on a specimen slide one needs to use one eye, looking through the scope, and the other other looking at the slide with adjacent ruler. I could not do this. I could either see through the scope or look at the slide on the scope platform. Could not see them together. The thing is as time went be in my elder years the neglected cataract in my left eye began to be invaded by blood vessels. This caused an infection which the family doctor could not cure. A visit to specialists revealed the problem and surgery was needed to save the eye itself. All was successful, but I now have only the right eye to use. The left has vision but no lens so all is out of focus. I realize this is more than you wanted to know, but I needed to post it for those who actually question me about my vision.

There is a permanent blanket of fog over our city. This is miserable weather. They say that fog comes about because of dirty air - - each droplet surrounding a dirt particle. I am not sure that is true. I have seen fog out in the boondocks where no human lives and there are no autos and such to pollute the air. But if we are experiencing global warming then this valley is in a protected spot. I don't believe in global warming. That is not the man-made kind that Al Gore preaches. I think our weather changes come about as part of the great cycles that embrace the earth over the eons. Ice ages come and go. Fertile lands become deserts and then revert. So, stay out of it, Al.

I'm just sayin'
