Happy Birthday, Norman Borlaug

The man responsible for saving what is likely to be the largest number of human souls from starvation was born 100 years ago today.

Alas, today's Left has made him a non-person, because his work made a laughing stock of Paul Ehrlich's "Population Bomb".  If only Borlaug had the foresight and wisdom to have been born African-American, or perhaps trans-gendered, all would have been forgiven.

Borepatch, you have the best ads on your blog. Last week it was an atheist dating service, this week it's a biker dating service. Will there be a gunnie dating service soon? Or climate change deniers?

Beats me. It may be that Google serves up ads based on cookies on your computer. Not sure where you've been browsing ...

You're right. I get dating site ads all the time. (I visited a few after my wife passed away, and the Internet never forgets.) I've seen dating service ads for "average" people, seniors, geeks, Christians, Muslims, Jews, and various nationalities for years, but never atheists or bikers until here recently. I suspect Google is snooping your content for keywords.

I find it all very entertaining. It's amusing what some people will try to turn into money.
