Two people I really admire were born on this day. Abe Lincoln meant that the Republic into which I was born, and where I live, and probably will die, is at its best about something more than free commerce. And Chuck, Chuck, what can I say? You point the way for all of us… Love the various pictures going around. Although if I were Darwin, I think I might be a bit jealous that he gets toast (with various religious ironies) while Lincoln is hip to the max. But then they say he was gay, so maybe, of course…
