Red River Richard,...... as you know I am always curious and interested in what goes on in my world... (except...when I am tired, hungry or watching pretty women dancing...... and of course, the soft caress of their of so gentle skin...... ;-)........ so that pretty much takes up my time... and then there are the 3 or 4 hours out on the golf course...... but anyway... I am a big history buff and continue to learn so much more info on the past, which is of course how we arrived at our world of today..... it was built on the past and also the multiple great civilizations in places as diverse as China, Japan, Tibet, Africa , Israel, the Roman Road.... the GOths and Visigoths... the Nordic tribes, the Celts..... the Egyptians.... the Atlantians...... our forebearers in the 300 dukedoms and duchy's of Modern Germany, Russia, Peter the Great.... The Empire of Sweden.... the Portuguese Mastery of the oceans and their Global empire in 1500..... The Medici's...... the Mayan's and Incan's...... the tribe in Africa that was aware that the star Sirius was a binary star system... hundreds of years prior to our western science. one of my early loves was reading..... and I of course, have become a big fan of plays, movies, opera... really any type of theater... but then again I binged out on NFL fantasy football and caught many hours of our 610 AM which is 24/7 Texans and all things football during that part of last fall.... early winter.... none of this is directly on topic.... aside from the fact that tremendous strategy planning and preparation goes into writing a book, especially a history book.... many hours are spent on mapping out military campaigns....the Texans sit around and draft up innumerable plays.... practice them.... do what if analysis... and watch game footage..as the past is prolog to the future.... just like in the financial markets... so it's all one big holistic Karmic circle...... they even made a board game about it.... They called it the "GAME OF LIFE" JOHN
