I was born in Maryland and spent my first thirty years living there, first in the Appalachian Mountains, then on the Eastern Shore, and later in suburban Washington. After a year in South Carolina, I moved to Georgia in 1977. I soon met another park ranger who worked in Florida. She was a wonderful woman who became my best friend. then my wife, and soon the mother of our three children. I spent over eleven years working in the historic city of Savannah, Georgia, and on the moss-draped sea islands nearby before moving to Atlanta.. In 2007, I retired from the National Park Service and a career dedicated to preserving and interpreting resources and themes in the cultural and natural history of the United States. It was a most rewarding experience. Today, I enjoy living in the rolling hills and woods of the Appalachian Piedmont east of Atlanta.
Our friends at Blue Crab Boulevard picked up a revealing story about the results we have to endure sometimes when journalists write about science. The BBC wrote the original story. The blogger known as AJStrata (The Strata-Sphere) shredded the science. Gaius (Blue Crab Boulevard) reduced the story to clam farts.
(Nothing beats the aroma of a plate of steaming littlenecks.)
