  • Ghandi's Salt March

    Ghandi's Salt March
    Jan 13 2026
    After making the salt by evaporation at Dandi, Gandhi continued southward along the coast, making salt and addressing meetings on the way. The Congress Party planned to stage a satyagraha at the Dharasana Salt Works, 40 km (25 mi) south of Dandi. However, Gandhi was arrested on the midnight of 4–5 May 1930, just days before the planned action at Dharasana. The Dandi March and the ensuing Dharasana Satyagraha drew worldwide attention to the Indian independence movement through extensive newspaper and newsreel coverage.

    At this point my pronounciation became terrible and rather than you suffer that, I cut it short.

  • The Life of the poet, Sappho

    The Life of the poet, Sappho
    Jan 9 2026


    Moore Information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sappho

    I haven't been able to find anything amusing lately. There's been stories most people have heard before, or stuff which I can't really extrapolate enough to warrant publishing. I had twelve episodes left after last year which were too short, really, so they didn't get published.
    So in the meantime here are some random Wikipedia reads.
