    On a day that was light years ago in terms of political civility, Harry Truman and Thomas Dewey, who would oppose each other that fall, shake hands at NYC St. Patrick’s Day parade, 70 years ago today: #APpic.twitter.com/xPmKj3uxIK

        It would be nice to return to those days where we could respectful disagree. I'm trying to get our politicians to wear Walk The Ridge bands that say, "I See You, I Hear You, I Respect You" on them. The visual reminder would temper their discourse. http://Walktheridge.org/bands

        Do you know where Thomas Dewey was born? Of course Michael knows, but for those who do not: Owosso, Michigan. Owosso isn’t known for much other than Curwood Castle.

        what did Harry say after the cameras were away, though, we all know the mob candidate could unleash a blue streak.

        Light years measure DISTANCE, not time. A careless error.

        Pet peeve (please forgive me): Light years are a measure of distance, not time. (In ordinary frames of reference.)
