(2) "Battlestar Galactica: An Analogical Essay on the Theme of Tolstoy's War and Peace." In my view, Edward James Olmos could be nominated either for the Emmy Award or the Nobel Peace Prize - or both simultaneously. And he enjoys a supporting cast worthy of Tolstoy's magnum opus. This is rare classic science fiction, explaining why yet another great program is unwinding this year.
(6) "The People Who Have Shaped My Life." A planned set of ongoing essays about some remarkable people and my good fortune in having had contact with them. Names include Ralph E. Hunt, my father; Genevieve Likins Hunt, my mother; Barbara Rosen, who has recently passed on; Jean Hilton, my "other mother": David Weiser, my childhood role model; Helen & Scott Nearing, role models at a distance; Jon Culbertson, biology teacher and gymnastics/fitness instructor and guide (photo below); and many, many more. This project is likely going to take some time.
Bear with me. I'll write more when I have some time and my motivation is suitable.
