EO signed this week by President Trump to get this pipeline complete. Long history. Search "constitution pipeline" on the blog. Story goes all the way back to 2014, before the project was canceled by Williams (WMB) in 2020.

The Constitution Pipeline has taken on symbolic status for some energy advocates who have chafed at state opposition to oil and gas infrastructure. Although many parts of the US northeast sit next to some of the country’s most bountiful natural gas reserves, limited pipeline capacity has prevented much of that supply from making it to them. Constitution was designed to transport Appalachian gas from Pennsylvania to New York.

124-mile pipeline, see also this update from 2019. One can begin to see the Canadian "monied" fingerprints all over this fight to stop the pipeline.

The Brontës: Wild Genius On The Moor: The Story Of A Literary Family -- Juliet Barker, c. 2010.

The definitive biography of this family. Wow.

At nearly 1,000 pages I doubt I will complete it any time soon, but it's a nice book to read ten or fifteen pages at a time. 

I spent a lot of time in this area of England, but it is interesting that being only 57 minutes by car from Haworth, England, where the Brontës lived, I only visited it once, as far as I recall. But it was one of the most rewarding, wonderful days I had in England. I remember it very, very well. Maybe I visited twice. 

It is amazing how many books on the Brontës I've had in my library over the years! Most of them were given away to Arianna's high school literature teacher when I was forced to cull my library due to space limitations. I'm not sad I don't have those books any more but they do bring back wonderful memories; especially some rare books found at the museum in Haworth. Now, fortunately, everything is available on the internet.
