not far from me. Many years ago, I was a social worker in Delaware County, the biggest in the state. I enjoyed traveling the roads there -- except on late night emergency calls in the winter. And in my younger days, I spent a fair amount of time in Woodstock.

Yesterday, in response to an OP asking how might the Russians be seeking to disrupt the 2020 election, I posted a detailed response. I might make it into an OP today. It is the same basic model they used in 2016, based on the very model used by governments and other groups for a long, long time. Indeed, as today marks 55 years since Malcolm X was assassinated, it is worth noting that same model was used. As was the case then, there are many people doing the heavy lifting for those who initiate the project. Just apply pressure to vulnerable cracks.

It's a pleasantly sunny day here, northwest of the Catskills. I hope that you & yours are enjoying it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
