@blockhart1 @connpost Thanks Brian. A great read on the GBS.
Eric is such an exceptional conductor (as well as a stand-up fellow) and, as you pointed out, is not leaving Bpt. anytime soon.

Another great read by Erik Larson.

@exlarson Yes, please please start writing again. And thank you so much for giving me hours of respite w/"Splendid" during these awful virus times. Another splendid read!!!

A nearly non-existent monsoon expanded the drought in the West. I wrote this story, but I also lived it: We barely got a lick of rain here in Albuquerque. https://t.co/cI06YVYxMf

How could a birthday be any better than Mahler 5 with the wonderful RSO @ORF in the gorgeous @Konzerthauswien ! MA

Life without music is unthinkable. I can't live one day without hearing music, playing it , studying it , or thinking about it .

Keep grinding. It feels great when it comes together.

I live in Albuquerque, near downtown. I don't know what "surge in violent crime" they are talking about. https://t.co/4pEnFpz34z

Congrats Mr. Larson ... but stellar reviews are not unexpected!!! Roberts' review, by the way, is a great read.

[Erik Larson @exlarson]

I'm delighted to share this, written by my favorite writer in the realm of Churchill, Andrew Roberts. https://t.co/oti853SlsW

[Phyllis A.S. Boros @PhyllisASBoros]

@exlarson Just back from book store w/my paws wrapped around your book! I was so worried that it would sell out that I made a trip to the book store yesterday to reserve a copy. Its pub. is the highlight of my "social" season (since I will now have something other than Trump to discuss)!

[Erik Larson @exlarson]

I hope you like it!

Huh?

[Henry Fountain @henryfountain]

This is one way to interpret it.

No kidding!

If you or I tried to barge our way into a SCIF, we'd be arrested. In, like, 10 seconds.

Thank you Henry and the NYT for another great story on a fascinating topic ... written beautifully. And understandable to dullards like myself! Congrats. to the photog. as well.

Desalination of seawater is expensive, financially and environmentally. Even the Saudis, whose ample oil and wealth have made them the world leader in desalination, know it has to become more sustainable. I went there to take a look. My story: https://t.co/CU5Nsx1G4c
