About
“The builders did not know the uses to which their work would descend; they made a new house with the stones of the old castle; year by year, generation after generation, they enriched and extended it; year by year the great harvest of timber in the park grew to ripeness; until, in sudden frost, came the Age of Hooper; the place was desolate and the work all brought to nothing; Quomodo sedet sola civitas. Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.”
….. Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited

Great blog! As a mil blogger, do you know about Digital Veterans Day, Nov 11? Check it out: http://open.mytbwa.com/emails/MyVetwork%20DVD%20Invite/DVD_Invite_mail-alt.html and let me know if you want to take part. If you can’t join in person but have a webcam, I can add your name/email address to “satellite” participants who’ll be sent a Digital Veterans Day “toolkit” prior to Nov 11. All free, brought to you by MyVetwork (community.myvetwork.com), to help the US military community.
Thanks, Jay,
