[Kzyxtalk] Field expedient.

[Marco McClean]

"I have sometimes amused myself by endeavoring to fancy what would be 
the fate of any individual gifted, or rather accursed, with an intellect 
very far superior to that of his race. Of course, he would be conscious 
of his superiority; nor could he (if otherwise constituted as man is) 
help manifesting his consciousness. Thus he would make himself enemies 
at all points. And since his opinions and speculations would widely 
differ from those of all mankind, that he would be considered a madman, 
is evident. That individuals have so soared above the plane of their 
race, is scarcely to be questioned; but, in looking back through history 
for traces of their existence, we should pass over all biographies of 
‘the good and the great,’ while we search carefully the slight records 
of wretches who died in prison, in Bedlam, or upon the gallows." -Edgar 
Allan Poe

The recording of last night's (2018-06-15) KNYO Fort Bragg and KMEC 
Ukiah /Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio/ show is available by one or 
two clicks, depending on whether you want to listen to it now or 
download it and keep it for later and, speaking of which, it's right here:

And besides that, here are links to a few not necessarily radio-useful 
but worthwhile items that I set aside for you at 
https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com while gathering the show together, 
such as:

And what the world looked like N-million years ago, and where a given 
address would be. Change the year and location; see for yourself. Those 
times and that world were just as real as where you are now. And the 
world of millions of years forward will be just as real, without even 
any particle of a memory of you and everything that's so important and 
serious and personal and all your delights, fears, accomplishments, 
political notions, secret shame, socks, hair, and the peeved way you 
twist the corner of your mouth when that annoying song starts or you 
remember a rude thing. Peevement wrinkles. Whole mountain ranges. Whole 
geological eras as ephemeral and inconsequential as a sneeze.
