Along the Gradyent

Blogging about life, culture, the economy and politics, i.e., stuff, since December 2012

Grant application writers are panicking throughout academia. The coldest was 1975.

I remember 1975 -- Lake Mendota wasn't clear of ice until May. Brrrrr.

Along the Gradyent: I had things I wanted to say and became tired of trying to force fit views by commenting on other people's blogs, so I started this enterprise. Contact me at gradyfosterone@gmail.com Your comments are welcome. If they are relevant, and when negative, stick to sticking it to only to public figures and don't defame or invade anyone's privacy. I'll publish them. Extended stories about life and family history are especially fun to write. We have the great fortune to have had many relatives who had prominent civic, professional, and/or political lives, which yields many thousands of references memorialized in press clippings and otherwise. I have received plenty of help from relatives who choose to remain unnamed. Those stories garner high readership. They are tagged with "Bathgate." I would say my politics are libertarian leaning. I seldom vote for Democrats, and usually don't vote for Republicans -- I have been known to get writer's cramp in the voting booth. Please do read and enjoy.
