I'm a Libertarian living in Humboldt County, CA. I've lived here in Eureka since 1973 and joined the Libertarian Party in 1992. This blog will mostly focus on local political issues, but I may stray into state and national issues as well, when I can't help myself.

I'd never heard of this earthquake long ago that destroyed Lisbon, which used to be one of the world's biggest and wealthiest cities. The earthquake was believed to be around a 9.2 (yikes!).

That was about the worst scenario I've ever read, no words to describe that horror!
Well, there was that plague thingy. A couple of times.
Funny coincidence! I was just reading how pipe tobacco smokers were the only ones who didn't suffer from the plagues. They even went so far to mandate pipe smoking for the children.
Maybe it's a sign I should buy some pipe tobacco & a pipe.
My stars! 9.2? (I wish I could reread post while typing). I haven't heard of that one before either. Those poor people!
