Orwellian. [1] Most people don't remember the hysteria that accompanied the auspicious year of 1984. I do. I lived it in the London of George Orwell's down-and-out. [2] I attach photos for your enjoyment. Big Brother is watching, afterall. How old were you, Reuben? Ten? Family and kids are my relatives in Ireland, who I visited.
The upper left photo shows my lab partners at our college outdoor lab held outside Glasgow, Scotland- beautiful Jo and Gus. Crazy Gus!
