I have to eschew these "Harper's Weekly" threads because they take too d@mn long to load.

I find the material interesting, but not at the slow speed it shows up on my machine.

"I have to eschew these "Harper's Weekly" threads because they take too d@mn long to load."

I totally get that -- I live, so to speak, "back in the woods" and my alleged 10 Mbps internet connection seldom comes in even 1/5 of that.
So it takes a while to load, and then they're hard to read, sometimes have to crank up the "zoom" to over 150% to get a clear image.

On the other hand, it's pretty astonishing how often you'll find today's debates addressed & illuminated by reports & analysis from the time, and that's real history, not just long-after-the-fact navel gazing.
