While visiting Chard, I attended Community Showcase Day, where I spoke with a man who had spent many years in business and who had considerable experience interviewing people. He was also involved in a choral group. Our conversation moved across several topics. At one point I mentioned a phrase I had once heard: the whole body is a resonant instrument. We briefly discussed how posture affects...

Are we at the start of World War 3? -this may bring some sort of sanity Subject: I found this on the internet. The real weapon we’ve always had. Transmutation.
