Re: Voting
I am NOT voting on Thursday either. But that's probably because I'm an American and there's no election here on Thursday. But I have a feeling that if I were a British subject, I would be a libdem. We're over here on the prairie making a spectacle of ourselves because former president Reagan has left the building. The poor man was 93 years old and died of Alzheimer's disease. I actually heard a newsperson refer to his death as ” A Tragedy.”That was very bizarre. I am so glad to find this Blog. I was referred by the Passways who are friends of your family. We are frequent visitors to Scotland. We (Brad and I) are good ol' ECUSA here in Oklahoma. I am signing off to watch THE FUNERAL events on TV as the proceedings are being shown on every network. If it's true as some Americans believe that President Reagan was God's gift to the USA, I expect he'll be putting in a reappearance on the 3rd day and I don't want to miss it.

OK listen up. Moocs are the future. Now before we go any further, let’s get the usual responses out of the way. The usual responses are twofold: What’s a mooc? (Most people) *rolls eyeballs* (lots of academics, including quite a few in my congregation) Firstly, a mooc is a term used for a new form…
