Common sense isn't.

While attending
Behavior
Based Safety (archive, 2004) Observer training in the vicinity, I took the
opportunity to get a few photos of the assembly site. Elsewhere in town (right), at a crossing on Melton Lake Drive, turbine towers were visible down the railroad tracks. |

| Quote of the moment |
| Freedom to learn is the first necessity of guaranteeing that man himself shall be self-reliant enough to be free. Such things did not need as much emphasis a generation ago, but when the clock of civilization can be turned back by burning libraries, by exiling scientists, artists, musicians, writers and teachers; by disbursing universities, and by censoring news and literature and art; an added burden, an added burden is placed on those countries where the courts of free thought and free learning still burn bright. If the fires of freedom and civil liberties burn low in other lands they must be made brighter in our own. |

FDR Speaks authorized edition of speeches, 1933-1945 (recordings of Franklin Roosevelt’s public addresses), side 5, National Education Association (June 30, 1938), ed. Henry Steele Commager, Introduction by Eleanor Roosevelt, Washington Records, Inc. (1960). Included in this address was an early effort to attune the people to the need for federal aid to education in those areas where there were insufficient tax revenues to provide for adequate equipment, teacher’s salaries, and texts to ensure quality education. ~ |
