A moment of contemplation



Forgive me, dear reader, a rare moment of contemplation. Earlier, I read that it was on on this day in 1981 [33 years ago!] that the first medical reports on a new and worrying kind of pneumonia seen in five gay men in the USA were published by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Two decades of terror and heartache were to follow.

This is also the 70th birthday of the original "Valjean" in Les Mis, Colm Wilkinson, and here he is singing (beautifully) a most appropriate song from that show - Empty Chairs at Empty Tables...


Here they talked of revolution.
Here it was they lit the flame.
Here they sang about tomorrow
And tomorrow never came.
