SETI project severs Civil War link

In college we would sometimes play a word game. Maybe it was a drinking game. The object was to create a single book title that represented all of the hottest publishing genres of that day: the ACW (and/or Lincoln), UFOs, cats (or dogs), Nazis (or WWII), and mysteries. Try it.

We enter similar territory this piece of news: land deeded by U.S. Grant is being sold off by its owners, SETI researchers who had originally planned to build an extra-terrestrial search facility thereon.

It all comes together somewhere over the horizon.

(Which reminds me, I promised a few words on the latest Lincoln assasination theory.)
