April 2nd - International Fact Checking Day

The day after April fools day. Who knew? Apparently Google does. https://canada.googleblog.com/2021/03/spot-misinformation-online-with-these.... https://factcheckingday.com/ Since Russell is most definitely a Scots name. I post the following thematic conclusion with sincere apologies to the ghost Robbie Burns, for misrepresenting the facts of his craftsmanship, through omission and alteration of his historical words. To a Louse, On Seeing One on a Lady's Bonnet at Church *O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us To see oursels as Google see us! It wad frae mony a blunder free us, An' foolish notion: What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us, An' ev'n devotion!* Modern english translation and brief thematic analysis here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_a_Louse Complete text here. https://interestingliterature.com/2018/12/to-a-louse-a-poem-by-robert-burns/ -- Russell
