War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Thin overcast and chilly this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — another day in the life. And this morning, if you’re able to view it, the Eta Aquarids meteor shower will bombard the earth with debris off Halley’s Comet — meteoroids the pieces are called — with an estimated 1,000 ‘falling stars’ an hour…
