My idea of a debate is where two reasonable, articulate people present compelling arguments on two sides of a question. From my perspective, there's little... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/08/wheres_the_deba.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/08/wheres_the_deba.html Tue, 11 Aug 2009 12:25:04 -0500 The Iranians are in a pitch battle for the soul of their nation. Their desire for "freedom" - to choose how to live collectively as a nation - is deep, but is different than the western concept of freedom. Now... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/07/country_religio.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/07/country_religio.html Wed, 01 Jul 2009 10:00:32 -0500 If you believe things are broken today, change it.

OK, that's nice - but why do I and my children (and their children... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/06/goose_gander.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/06/goose_gander.html Mon, 01 Jun 2009 21:58:02 -0500 On Monday, I had one of my best rides ever (so far). My dearest was up and out early, and I decided to get an extended ride in quickly. The sun was up and it was about 45 degrees, perfect... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/riding_around.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/riding_around.html Wed, 27 May 2009 09:45:49 -0500 A few random notes: The Lilacs are in full bloom along our local roads, and it's making my (almost) daily rides very pleasant. Surprisingly so - I was actually looking forward to my ride yesterday just so I could have... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/lilacs_google_e.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/lilacs_google_e.html Sun, 24 May 2009 09:37:17 -0500 You probably know that I'm a bit fussy about food. Certainly doing a lot of cooking has lead me to be a student of good eating, and beyond that I've had plenty of quality time over the years to think... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/eating_the_futu.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/05/eating_the_futu.html Wed, 20 May 2009 14:58:22 -0500 The O-ster did some yeoman work this weekend.

We've finally hit a stretch of reasonable weather, and here's the results: quite a few cows, way more cars than needed, plenty of wind (that's good and... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/car_cow_report.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/car_cow_report.html Fri, 17 Apr 2009 08:52:30 -0500 For those keeping score:... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/lookin_good.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/lookin_good.html Tue, 14 Apr 2009 20:57:04 -0500 There's a lot of bikes out there, and far be it from me to judge anyone on two wheels (or any other wheel count for that matter). But the whole fixie thing has me a little frustrated.

I've been doing a lot more riding in the last few weeks, and that's been great, but it doesn't replace running. So this morning due to a couple of circumstances,... http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/running_back.html http://www.gutwin.org/mt/archives/2009/04/running_back.html Wed, 08 Apr 2009 07:28:32 -0500 I've ridden extensively in both California and Vermont. I had far more problems in California than I've every had in Vermont - both of the times I was involved in bike-car contact was in California.

Apparently the Performing Right Society (PRS for Music) has zeroed in on Rosemary Greenway, owner and operator of a private stable in Bushton, Wilts, England.
