New Article: A Witch Trial in Auburn
Chris Abel, a good friend and an able author, has submitted a new article for the Rochester Local section. This one deals with the hateful, ignorant bit of tripe recently posted to the Auburn Citizen which has been widely and roundly criticized across the nation:
A Witch Trial in Auburn, Rochester Regional ~ DragonFlyEye.Net
As I was reading this piece of journalistic work, disbelief become a gut-wrenching loathing of an ideal. An ideal thought dead since 1808, once called the “Inquisition” and once again in the 1980’s the “Satanic Panic.” This time, it wasn’t written in the Deep South by a Pentecostal community or in America’s Bible belt of the west, but right next door in Auburn, NY.
Quickie read that is definitely worth a once-over for those of you who don’t burn people at the stake. I presume that is most of my readers. . .

A Tribute to John Lennon
In my Internet wanderings I've just stumbled upon "I Dig a Pygmy: A Tribute to John Lennnon" - a piece of "live musique concrète" whose sound sources consisted entirely of the utterances and recordings of John Lennon and the Beatles. The piece was composed and performed by Paul D. Lehrman, who's works include projects for PBS, the Learning Channel and the Discovery Channel to name a few. You can watch his video performance and read the composition notes . . . More. . . ||
