Brilliant work, and I will seek out the book reviewed. Thank you for beautifully joining the arc represented by the sage-grouse - fulfilling its role in nature - and the humans, fulfilling their roles too.

Thank you for the wonderful stories and the existential journey in the life of a warrior. Mating and dying are wondrous focusing rituals.

John, thank you for reading. That Johnson quote is about it.

This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you. Makes me think about all the unexplored and exploded ordinance that Ukraine and Gaza are buried beneath. Also makes me much more confident about the people who are in our military. Thank you again.
