mRNA is such a fascinating and important technology that could reshape health care, and America’s public health system is being run by men hellbent on taking us back two centuries.

Can't blame the dog on this rollover of the #canoe. Snagged fishing line released, and I wasn't thinking.

I hope farmers were as lucky as we were to get 2 cm of rain last night. Only 2.7 mm was forecast. Just bought a rain gauge package yesterday. Put the small one out last night. Didn't get the big one installed yet. The rain was a surprise. #Restoule #Ontario
