I was one of the best students in my college French class - and that fact led to my first sexual experience.

I had a feeling it wasn't right when I posted it but wasn't in the mood to go check my spelling! I just never get to use my knowledge of French anymore... use it or lose it, as they say. Started using French at the ripe old age of four of five and have had few occasions to use it in my adult life which makes me less confident about my use of this beautiful language.

It is no small thing when a leader of a major Western power calls to American engineers and researchers.

It is a great honor to think that some country wants to conduct a Manhattan Project for the good of all humankind.

ANY initiative like this makes me weep with hope.
