- High on the Cumbrian fells, above Devoke Water and overlooking Birkby Fell is an amazing, but largely undiscovered landmark known as the 'City of Barnscar'.

- E' talmente bello questo post di Dan Gillmour (in particolare per questa frase in rosso) che lo metto qui integralmente: In retrospect, Al Gore's endorsement of Howard Dean for president seems almost inevitable.
