It is interesting to see how one blog posting can cause other blog posting to be created, much like a comment in a conversation at a dinner party can cause a discussion about a seemingly unrelated topic. “I like the dress you are wearing; the color is so…” “Did you know that the first cloth dyes came from …” “Millions were spent in getting a specific color to region and they in turn caused new industries to be founded…”
I posted a bio from a 1882 newspaper and that gave me a few comments about the topic and caused me to do some research on the subject and found this book which I would have never known existed.
