Irish Famine's awful impact is now crystal clear |...
The new statistics from the Irish Census about post-Famine Ireland are an extraordinary treasure trove. Every Census from 1926 is now online at this URL. Most important, however, the statistics also quote extensively from previous Census material, dating back to 1831.

;-) Not a bird or a plane, but a space shuttle! via Holy Kaw! on 12/23/09 I can’t help thinking—if they were closer, I’d definitely be freaked out about having a space shuttle launch in my airspace.

The Holy Spirit is the author of faith, and strengthens it so that we pray believing...
