Peace on Earth?

After the reunion in mid-September and then the horrendous devastation after hurricane Sandy I started to feel that the class blog had run out of purpose and that it was probably time to just let it fade away. Then came the terrorist attack upon children in Newtown, Connecticut last week compounded by its timing to what is supposed to be the most joyous season of the year, Christmas, and a New Year.

I was even more convinced that that was it for the blog. The final straw. I went to the blog format pages, behind the scene stuff, and I noticed that there have been a few hundred visits to the blog in the past month. Perhaps members of the class were looking for more news about our New Jersey friends. Charlie had already covered that concisely with his comment on the previous post. There may be those who have been waiting for something new to entertain or amuse them. I have nothing for them.

Some blogs have a custom of putting up what is called an "open thread" where there is no particular subject matter presented  and viewers/followers can comment on any subject that they care to.

Consider this an open thread.
