Well, here's a note on WAIS -- the very fine moderated email list by Ronald Hilton, of Stanford. An old guy who is a real expert on all Latin America, and especially on the pre-WWII Spanish Civil War (Franco) -- where he lived and studied just before its outbreak.
http://wais.stanford.edu -- World Association of International Studies. In my mind, I think of it as:
Was Is. I like it. Maybe Ron will someday change to a weblog.

Copied this:
-So Sad To See-
Have you ever seen anything as sad
As a grave with no name and no flowers
As a cross by the side of the road
Where somebody died
But you'll never know who
And all around you
Nameless faces with nameless emotions
And families lost in the flow of time...
What about the children who cry
Or have to die
When someone smiles
But it's really a lie
And don't you know
How it hurts to be lonely?
Have you ever seen anything as sad
As someone with a useless life and broken heart
As someone who has lost their soul
And doesn't know where to find it
What of those whose loved ones died
But they alone are left alive
Or people forced to watch another's pain
Who cannot end a cruel game
Tears for many, tears for few
Always my tears will be for you

Mmm... wrote this Saturday, coming back from Auburn... cheerful little thing. -_-
