Whether it is any harder these days to get up for all of the rehearsing, all of the preparation, all of the gruelling physical endurance you have to have for a daily play? everybody works, you know. Even the prime minister works, the president works. Everybody works, or plays either one and then sleeps. So that s all, that s all we do. And it s not hard to go to work with this play.

Which is not about polemics.

Martha during the debates, President Biden said clearly i am the Democratic Party right now. Today the Wall Street Journal called on him to lead on this issue. Writing this in an oped. Perhaps you heard a few thousand times as the Biden Administration will listen to science. The science says schools can safely reopen. The white house is still listening, make that bowing, to the nonsciences who run the teachers union. How about the science of impact of Generational Learning Loss that were experiencing right now . We have yet to see the numbers. But my anticipation is that they will be difficult when we do. What about the emotional toll of being deprived of Human Interactio
