Where is the warmth, the sense of safety, the dramatic expression, the conveyance of meaning instead of mere words, the allowance of space for the child's imagination to create its own pictures?Collagemamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03818246340865714754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-63642401944239654452007-09-28T09:29:00.000-05:002007-09-28T09:29:00.000-05:00Mark, you are so right.

And, change is often so subtle as we go along, one day at a time, that we don't realize how much we have changed until we look back.Genevieve Netzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004780820713448880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-54008743590304867622007-09-28T09:25:00.000-05:002007-09-28T09:25:00.000-05:00John, I had heard paraphrases of the rules of robo...John, I had heard paraphrases of the <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Laws_of_Robotics" REL="nofollow">rules of robotics</A> over the years and most recently from my sci-fi-reading kids, but didn't realize that Isaac Asimov wrote them. He was amazingly visionary. I think as robots are used more in war, not to save lives but to kill, sadly Asimov's principles will be more and more set aside.Genevieve Netzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004780820713448880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-90790644213738408202007-09-28T09:13:00.000-05:002007-09-28T09:13:00.000-05:00Thanks for stopping by, Kim.

I live on the eastern end of Clarksville so we are practically neighbors (well, compared the the rest of the blogosphere). I grew up just north of Bowling Green and travel right up Hwy 79 everytime I go see my parents. I am heading out to the Country Pantry tomorrow for some spices. I look forward to reading more of your blog.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02358279568679653023noreply@blogger.com
