I haven't been around too much since the American Super-Tuesday. I've been totally immersed in the contest between Obama and Clinton (who more and more reminds me of the Black Knight.)Link

Well it's normal. All of my income comes from the U.S.and Bush's policies halve practically cut my income in half; and that's not even considering that his policies have put the world on a war footing that could destroy us all- far more important than my income.

So, I hope to soon spend more time here as before. I don't think Obama-McCain will be that riveting.

Hey, Grandma Moses started late!

I, too, have been putting more attention on the U.S. politics lately. But I do read ET a lot, and comment occasionally, and learn often.

Many times, I will start reading something, having no idea of the issue under discussion--mostly because it has gotten zero coverage on this side--and so I learn a great deal about Europe and European issues from the various writers. I don't read deeply or even regularly enough to know all the ins and outs, and whatever happened around the Winter Solstice--I missed it entirely.

But I am grateful to all of you for your efforts toward intelligent and civil discourse, and a bit of educating those of us whose media leaves us less well informed of the world. Rest assured that while I may not know all I should about Europe, I sure as shootin' can find you lots of stories about Brittney.
