Quote of the day......

No more fatuous chimera has 

ever infested the brain than that 

you can control opinions by law or

direct belief by statute, and

no more pernicious sentiment 

ever tormented the heart than 

the barbarous desire to do so.

The field of inquiry should remain open, and

the right of debate must be regarded 

as a sacred right.

-- William E. Borah(1865-1940) 
U. S. Senator.

         *         *         *         *        *

It is dangerous to be right 

in matters on which 

the established 

authorities are wrong.

-- Voltaire.(1694-1778).
