Florence Nightingale's effectiveness as an advocate is an illustration of how bold a person born into an empowered circumstance can be. The working class nurses would have had to risk much more to undertake the cause she did. Thanks Mr. Keillor, for the story.
Why didn't I know about this before?? I've missed The Writer's Almanac since it left the radio; very important to me during some hard times. I'll be listening daily from now on. Great hearing you again, Garrison!
Thanks for today's Writer's Almanac recognizing William Clayton, Rosellen Brown, Farley Mowat, Florence Nightingale & Jim Harrison

Thank you for this edition of "The Writer's Almanac."
A nice poetic look at how our mature side is always aware of the childlike side of ourselves.

Garter snake or anaconda, that's when I would've headed back to the house🐍
"Never Cry Wolf" - and excellent and much under-appreciated movie.
Thank you for today’s edition of “The Writer’s Almanac.”
What a poem. Thank you.
Note to Florence Nightingale -- Are we still to suppose that bullets and cannonballs had nothing to do with the high death rates?
This is lovely, thank you.
A chickadee landed on my bare toe... so light she wasn't believable
I've read " Sea of Slaughter" by Farley Mowat.
