I finally figured out the stupid space linking problem. There was margin:10px in my link line. How it got there is unknown to me. Alas like anything else in life, you fix one thing and another thing messes up. Now my comments are to far over the left. I'll have to fix that sometime today, but my commenting software is acting up.
I'm glad I figured out the stupid linking problem. I think one of my greatest strengths, and also one of my worst weaknesses, is when I get hooked on something, I get really hooked. I spent all last night and the better part of the morning trying to figure out the extra space link problem. I couldn't concentrate on anything else until I fixed it. My obsessivenss is great when I'm doing something that's good for me, and it's really bad when I get obsessed over things that are bad for me.
Still, I did figure how to fix the extra space link problem. Now if I can just fix the comment thing.

A great article from the Village Voice on the coming global water crisis.
Maybe we will someday be like the people who live on the planet Dune in Frank Herbert's book. I love the book "Dune". Frank Herbert was a genius! I hope to write books like him one day, not for adults, but for children. I love books that make me think deeply about issues.

I was at the library today writing. I'm very lucky to have a public library within a short walking distance of where I live. When I was in college, I did all my studying in public libraries. I never studied in the college library, even when I won my own carrel in the lottery. The college library was too distracting; I spent all my time there people watching. The public library in town, on the other hand, was quieter and it had less distractions for me.
Since I was at the library, I even borrowed a book, EM Forester's "A Room with a View." I've never read the book despite the fact, that "A Room with a View" is on my top ten movie list. I was actually thinking, that it might be fun to go on an EM Forester reading binge. I could read everything EM Forester has ever written. I like all the movies that have been adapted from his books, including "Howard's End" and "A Passage to India", so it might be time to actually read his books.
