Now larger than the sun and clearly visible....does anyone think Holmes is heading our way?

Comets have played some interesting tunes during the course of history. I am reading Barbara Tuchman's GUNS OF AUGUST, and even she mentions comets and their appearance around certain "major" events/ The book won the Pulitzer in 1963, and Barbara died in the late 80's, I think, so she is not writing about something happening around us now. All very fascinating...

"When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of men's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses, for art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstone of our judgment."

John F. Kennedy, Oct. 26, 1963, Address, Amherst College
