Upset the apple carts of the vested interests and your fate is the same in any century, the twenty-first, the seventeenth, or the first. For the moment, apparently prosecution and persecution of climate scientists will have to suffice, but can a renewed Inquisition be far behind?

When completed, this will be a tourist attractor, both for planned visits and for spur-of-the-moment visits by the many passers-by travelling these two major interstate highways. (The funding cutoff was, as Oklahoma's legislative decisions often are, penny wise and pound foolish.)

    Chuck Oates The anticipated 2015 opening will be delayed at least one year, but commercial development may help save the project. Certainly, support from Oklahoma's two previous governors will help stir up interest and funding. See http://www.aiccm.org/commercial-development .

Early Rice yearbooks now online

The first 20 Rice University yearbooks, 1916-1935, are now online. Rice's Fondren Library has recently scanned and uploaded them.
