northfield, MN was a lark. i managed to embarrass my wife at her college reunion (what do you expect when there's free liquor and pretty alumns and coeds; tho. none as pretty as mine of course. or the mother of my child). had a nice visit with friends in the twin cities as well, tho. didn't manage to find my brother, as he's still roaming around taipei. now posting from the spectacular town of duluth, MN, perched on a large hill overlooking lake superior, the largest (by surface area) freshwater lake in the world, and second only to some radioactive cesspool in russia in volume. (have to salvage some wounded nationalistic pride after today's disappointing loss to ghana in the world cup.) well boys, 2-1 in the last three. good work in my absence. should i just stay away? ha ha ha! it was a joke, really! you couldn't keep me away if you tried. tho. this weekend i'm still in the north woods, way up wisconsin eh, for the midwest renewable energy association's annual energy fair, a veritable extravaganza of energy efficiency and renewable energy. (check out www.the-mrea.org). energy and resource issues are critical to our environmental, political, and national security issues (why else do nations and indivuals rise up with arms to rape and pillage their neighbors, external and now more internal?) anyhoo, back from my meanderings to the topic at hand. keep up the fine work and take it to the browns on sunday. from sunny & cool duluth with love, papa M ps-jimmy, we don't need more pitching. we just need to use what we have more judiciously. we have plenty of depth and talent which is not currently being exploited (ahem, hint hint).
