How to Achieve Racial Harmony

It occurred to me sometime ago, that the key to racial harmony does not exist in government affirmative action programs. It does not exist in angry shouts and insinuations. It does not exist in guilt or forced regulations or any of the like. The key to racial harmony is my family. It is the family next-door; and all of the multiracial families everywhere. Because humans tend to fight over differences; racial or otherwise. They also tend to become interested in the opposite sex of the people around them—which often includes those who they may have had occasion to be at odds with. Then they intermarry and have interracial and multicultural children. Eventually this phenomenon makes it difficult to dislike a particular racial or cultural group—when members of your own family identify partially or entirely with that group. In other words, as people intermarry and our offspring become more "mixed," the division between the races is bound to begin to fade away into history. —KJC

I went into the site fueled primarily by my lifetime of interest in the natural environment; as well as my interest from volunteering as a park ranger in the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
