But with it will come rebirth.  At another home.  360 Skeptic (dot com).  Hold onto your hats.  The winds of change are blowing.

<p>It is a drizzly, cold day in Florida today.  My thoughts turn to the warmer and brighter.  But the thoughts themselves aren&#8217;t that warm and bright.  Nothing approaching the real thing.  And it is probably a good thing.</p>
<p>Imagine if recollections were as vivid and pleasing as real-time experience . . . there would be a lot of people, like heroin addicts, reclining on couches and beds, lost in memory.</p>
<p>I have often lamented over the poor resolution of my memories.  They pale considerably next to any old boring thing before me face right now.  Maybe that&#8217;s a good thing.</p>
