Director Marlett of the Sedgwick County Zoo “Apes and Man” exhibit had #JaneGoodall sign Gary Larson’s #FarSide cartoon. She was awesome!

To her 2007 H. Clinton endorsemt, I wrote her. Her response:
“Thank you so much for writing these encouraging words today. I am so pleased. We face many life and death issues in this country and in the world. And I am confident that Americans care; and Americans will work together for solutions.”

#YomKippur, may all find peace & love.
“To those I have wronged, I ask for forgiveness.”
“To those I may have helped, I wish I had done more."
“To those I neglected to help, I ask for understanding."
“To those who helped me, I thank you with all my heart.”
“May you be sealed in the book of life."

I just listened to some of Charlotte’s songs. “Talk You Down” was my favorite. I would say agreed!

What is happening in exchange for the “reduction in crime”? For federal troops to be coming into cities, something is very wrong. Americans deserve better.
