Hi Lou,
I discovered your blog through the Perfume Bloggers site. Your insight and wit is really on. My partner, Greg and I are artists. Greg, for the last six years, has been writing a story about the Three Gorges Dam in China. What an environmental catastrophe that dam is! Greg also did some visual development on The Golden Compass film. See his website here:http://www.spalenka.com
Thanks so much for sharing your brilliance.

Hi Roxana,
Thank you so much for your kind words - and thanks for sharing Greg's website: that is an impressive, marvelous body of work! I think we've actually got some of his in our sf/fantasy collection. Happy to hear from you - and find your website too: you're a perfumer!
Lou
