"There's So, So Much To Read."

How true, how true, Dr. Seuss! The flood of material to read and view is astounding - and growing at an alarming rate. I take advantage of random moments throughout the day to catch up, but so much remains waiting for my eyes and time. Here are a few compelling stories, videos, and photo essays I found worthwhile. Hope you do, too.
