Lowell is getting nicer too...the old mills are now a Park, and there are new businesses and homes there too.

I didn't know about CNR at the Circus Fire, although, I recall he was forever fond of Hartford.

'Actor and theater director Charles Nelson Reilly, who was thirteen years old at the time, survived the fire and dramatized it in the film of his stage show, The Life of Reilly. In a 1997 interview, Reilly said that he rarely attended the theater, despite being a director, since the sound of a large audience in a theater reminded him of the large crowd at the circus before the disaster. He also said during his latter show that his mother, who told him not to go the circus on that day with his friend and disobeyed her, caught them sneaking out of her sight and scolded at them, "I hope it burns to the ground!""

My aunt did her residency at Hartford Hospital under Dr. Tom Hepburn; so there are many family stories about the Hepburns, handed-down. Quirky family, her very progessive mother helped found *Planned Parenthood* w/ Margaret Sanger.

I meant, why one big tank, rather than several smaller ones?

I dunno... Why do you have one big toilet (or, at most, two or three), rather than a couple of dozen really tiny ones?

Unsulphured molasses is great for feeding the microbiotic life forms that assist plants in the uptake of nutrients around the roots, too.
