Ushaw Moor Memories (Backup)

Memories of Ushaw Moor and Deerness Valley

What Is Going On?

We look back at Ushaw Moor's history, live in the present, and think/plan for the future. Despite the coffee, the new football season, brilliant books and moving music  the present is sometimes not enough. The present can be confusing; we know that a few people have plundered  in order to feather their own nests e.g. one or two bankers, and even a few members of the House of Lords  are reported by some of the press as being a bit unsavoury. What are we to think? How can we use our memories and common sense to some constructive purpose? For a start it might be useful to listen to Michael Shermer; he has produced what is called 'The Baloney Detection Kit'. I have tried to approach his contribution with an open mind and found it interesting. It is available on Google [world web easier than UK] at Richard Dawkins.Net; if you will, mouse into Michael Shermer.

I will post more conventional articles soon.
