I was going to post the same thing about the period. Dickens died in 1870 and even during his lifetime there was improvement all around. The Nutcracker was written 22 years later and, but for the NYC bankers funding the likes of Lennon, the revolution in Russia would not have happened nor the Great War funded by world bankers.

Lol...I expect you meant Lenin (Vladimir) and not Lennon (John)...something to be said about both, though...

That one was in a hurry and letting my fingers do the thinking. I have found I consistently post mistakes I only see later, and people either disregard them mistakes or kindly help with a correction. I rarely go back in fix my failures.

They're only failures when you stop. Slight imperfections can be a pleasure and provide identity.

Then I'll be easily identified by my many 'slight' imperfections on the key board, just like someone that cusses out of habit! I see two errors in my above post. Should I edit and fix, nah.

But someone who cusses out of habit isn't anywhere near as nice to have a conversation with.
