And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Kilauea Volcano Eruption Continues On Christmas Eve (Dec. 24, 2024)
Years ago Mrs. CW and I visited this place, and although no eruption of any kind was occurring then, Mrs. CW did not like the place and insisted we leave. Obviously she sensed the tumult going on somewhere beneath our very feet.
We walked it in 1979 when it was both quieter and much more accessible. A desolate, otherworldly landscape. Awesome.
