The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Coming to the New World


For John, BLUFI am not saying Vikings got here first, the Lusitanians did, but still, they beat Columbus by 400 some years.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Here is the lede plus one:

THE STORY THAT GUY MELLGREN told about the curious silver coin began on the shores of Maine, where he met a stranger named Goddard.  In the fall of 1956, Mellgren and Ed Runge, a pair of amateur archaeologists, had come in search of the most basic of coastal dig sites—a shell midden—when they happened onto a more unusual discovery.

Goddard had invited them to explore his shoreline property, and there, on a natural terrace about eight feet above the high tide line, they found stone chips, knives, and fire pits, along with an abundance of other unexpected artifacts.  Each summer for many years, Mellgren and Runge returned to excavate the “Goddard Site,” with little help from professional archaeologists.  In the second summer, they produced the coin.

This is about the Goddard Site.
