History. What occurred. What went right and what went wrong.  Looking at data does not tell us why things happened, what […]

You Saw this Speech in the MMMemo Two Weeks Ago. I sometimes blow off the wizard, but I never blow off Princess Pennie. So when she asked me to put this speech in today’s rabbit hole, I said, “Yes ma’am.” In 1744, when ­Thomas Jefferson was still in diapers, all of North America outside the […]
