Thank you so much for letting us know. Best wishes to you and your family.
In the mind, or consciousness of the Earth this flower first lay latent as a dream. Perhaps, in her consciousness, it nested as that which in us corresponds to a little thought.--A.Blackwood
Thanks! I was looking forward to that one, oh well. Hopefully someone will claim it so you can finish the book, but if I get back soon, and it's still open, I'll take it on again. I love fish and sea creatures! Perhaps it's because I am a Pisces

Hi Kozmique,
That was wonderful! I proof listened it. PL OK.
The last passage in it sounded like a theory of devolution.
There a few little reminders in there that this was written in 1844. I especially like the long definition of the mysterious thing called electricity. And the definition of parachute as: "A machine somewhat in the form of the top of an umbrella, used to moderate the descent of those who ascend in balloons, and guarantee them against the effects of a sudden fall."
I will start cataloging.
Thanks so much!

Thank you Amy! It is definitely one of those throwbacks that makes a good contrast against contemporary culture that lets you see how much (or in some cases, how little) we have changed.alg1001 wrote: ↑January 18th, 2020, 11:13 am Hi Kozmique,
