I wish I had a friend like you 20 years ago. What started with a book on the Great Pyramid, expanded into a bookcase of books on ancient civilizations, life, tools, knowledge we have somehow lost.
That valley in Kenya is cited multiple times as the Cradle of civilization, and I'm totally fine with that :)
Thanks for that kind word. I personally never left school in my mind. Makes me who I am today, good; bad or ugly..
That way of thinking has served you well. I'm only just picking the books up again after a somewhat wasted 20 year break.
