May Update

April ended and May began with precipitation, and now, on May 1, a thick fog curtains the lakefront.  Fascinating that Lake Michigan and Chicago's Lake Shore Drive are so shrouded with mist as to be utterly invisible.  Reminds me of my one visit to the Grand Canyon, when it was completely filled with dense water vapor.  A good reason to go back some time.

I'm glad you're learning about pollution. But what can my niece do for her autistic child?

Dear Kathleen, The Discover Magazine article I mentioned mentions several sources of help. One is a group called Defeat Autism Now (DAN), another is a doctor, Amy Yasko, who consults via the internet. Best wishes! Julie
