Guest Block Article from my First and Best friend in the US

The first friend I made upon arriving in the US in 1950 was Willian (Billy) Lee. He was similar to me in biological and academic age. I was at MIT and he at Yale. We joined the same Fraternity in the same year and quickly became fast friends. Fast forward some 70+ years, we are both retired and write a blog page for our own amusement/communication with our network of friends and readers. Billy's website is named Friendshipology and can be found via

In any case, I asked him if he will post something on my block pages and he supplied the 

below short piece:

 (By Billy) Discussing "Make America Great Again", I suggested to my friend James Luce,

a fellow early board member at The 1990 Institute, " We should actually think more

about how to "Make The World More Safe" instead. 

He reminded me of a 300,000 word book he authored some year ago - 

titled "Chasing Davis". 

For my benefit, he sumarized it with only 29 words. It's quite note worthy !

"Make the World Safe for Life Again"

Teach people how to become compassionate Humanists who 

think that peace is better than plenty, less is more, and tolerance 

of others does not include acquiescence to harmful behaviors.

Take a look at Billy's website for more of the same!.
