I sometimes wonder how readers square the circle of their scientific and poetic/spiritual sides. A perhaps uneasy co-habitation? Using my favorite language, let me propose, "Mens sana in spiritus sanctus" or something akin...

The body will take care of itself thereby.

I "liked" this piece but I don't really like it. I don't like these dangers to wildlife. The bird populations seem to be threatened in so many ways now and that is frightening. Although I haven't gone to any of your attached links, I do appreciate the references. It's all scary.

And, just for fun, I am one of those people who was gifted with four years of high school Latin. I had a rigorous instructor for all four years and still find myself using that language to decipher vocabulary. I went on to study Spanish later and , obviously, found Latin to be very useful there too.

Thanks for your post.
