Will try to finish reading my book today, <em>Among the Dead Cities</em> by A.C. Grayling, a discussion of the morality of the allies’ bombing German & Japanese cities during WWII. The discussion of the book on amazon is quite heated. Grayling is a venerable British philosopher, and one who tries to make philosophy accessible to the masses; for example, he wrote a column in the Guardian for awhile. However, some on amazon argue that he gets his history wrong in ways that influence his moral conclusions. That has to do with the justification defense. Anyhow, the subject is fascinating & Grayling’s book is clearly written & arguments clearly presented.</p> Good morning.

Coffee’s up.

Phil saw his shadow according to MSNBC. Is the sun even up yet?

I’m east of there, near Maxatawney, and there’s no clouds and there’s no shadows here. Maybe it’s all those klieg lights in Puxatawney
