MONTHLY MEMORY LANE: 3 years ago: April 2014. I mark in red three posts from each month that seem most apt for general background on key issues in this blog, excluding those reblogged recently[1], and in green up to 4 others I’d recommend[2]. Posts that are part of a “unit” or a group count as one. For this month, I’ll include all the 6334 seminars as “one”.
