Thank you to all my readers and supporters and a Happy New Year!
As a truly miserable 2021 comes to an end, I want to send a very big and hearty thank you to all my readers and the many people who support my work here. I could not do this daily if I did not know that others were interested in what I did.
I also wish that 2022 be a great year for everyone. May we all see joy and happiness in our personal lives, and a renewal of freedom and the pursuit of happiness for everyone else in the coming year. The two go together.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Happy New Year!
Happy new year to ya all!
I think things are looking up, actually. That the military tension in Eastern Europe is for the good. As is the recent developments in US domestic politics. And inflation will reverse central banks’ policies. And above all, literally, JWST will make history next year.
On a personal note, where I live the clouds are dense and go all the way to the ground as a thick fog. People are still using their fireworks to the effect of diffuse lights in the half transparent darkness. At least the noise is still there, and that’s what counts, right?
I have a bottle of cognac and a deck of card after having eaten great food that my neighbor cooked. God created me to drink cognac!
Happy New Year. May 2022 exceed all expectations.
May 2022 be the year that ordinary people stop selling themselves short, and take back decision-making authority over their lives … moving their nations away from social technocracy and towards rights-respecting/responsibility-expecting governance.
Happy New Year to the host and all readers, from up here in lockdown Quebec. Hard to see how 2020.2.0 will be better than 2020.1.0, but hope springs eternal…
A very happy new year to each and every reader here! ( And especially to our host! ) , I’m hardly confident that 2022 will improve on last year, but let’s all keep fingers crossed!!!
Have a safe and blessed New Year, one and all.
Happy New Year, Bob! And to all my fellow members of this Blog
Happy New Year Bob, thank you for all that you do. Hopefully in 2022 caving will continue to be a hobby and not an address!?
Col Beausabre-
I will second that thought.
I’ll third it. Happy New Year everyone!
Happiest of New Years to everyone!
Thank you for an informative and entertaining 2021 and here’s to an even better 2022! God bless you and your family, Bob!
And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
“Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.”
And he replied:
“Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God.
That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way.”
– Minnie Louise Haskins
Happy New Year. This is the year that the people will remind the politicians.;
“that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
Happy New Year, Bob. Congratulations on all of your fine reporting in 2021, especially on COVID and First Amendment issues. Best wishes for 2022!
Hip hip, Happy New Year to y’all.
May the Omicron sweep out the covid panic.
May the JWST unfurl successfully.
May the Starship/SH get to orbit (and back – I think the heatshield might be the biggest headache).
May the SLS have a successful launch and then the program be retired to a museum.
May The Woke go back to sleep (or better yet, really wake up).
May Putin and Ji decide Biden is too demented to risk messing with!
May Eric Adams develop a stiff enough backbone to follow up on his promises regarding crime in NYC
