Be ye a history buff? I had a real interest in world history which has
waned slightly over the years, but the schools made U.S. history just too
staid. Read a few books about the dawn of various (non-Egyptian) societies
which I liked though they could be quite dry in parts sometimes. Always
wondered not only where I came from but where "we" came from.
