Another stunner from you Marc, steeped as you in the classics. How you make connections
pulled from far corners of history and fiction is a rare ability.

Speaking of connections, wasn’t there a marvelous BBC show called Connections? I’m not sure who hosted it. Wasn’t Shama I think. It was before his time.
Surely it can’t have been American! 😁

Though PBS was really superb back in the day. It’s still halfway decent compared to the trash spewed by mainstream media.
