Another computer problem averted by cyber wizard William Schmidt.\u00a0 If you had tried to access the files from February 2005 to October 2007 in ancientrails, you would have been met with a not found error message.\u00a0 An e-mail to Bill and he not only had the problem managed, but helped me relocate the files on my own computer.\u00a0 I knew they were here somewhere.\u00a0 Thanks again, techno-mage.<\/p>\n
Morning workout, a bit of legislative blogging for the Sierra Club and lunch.\u00a0\u00a0 My movie of the moment for my workouts is the continuing saga, the Maharbarata.\u00a0 I’m on disc 7 of a lot more.\u00a0 Each disc has six episodes.\u00a0 This is one long story.\u00a0 It interweaves gods and humans, demi-gods and demons with the history of India, providing along the way morals and folkways.\u00a0 Just today, for example, Dhorydan, a contested crown prince, got this wisdom from Bhisma, “No.\u00a0 Just because you are elder does not mean you will become king.\u00a0 In India merit is most important.”<\/p>\n
