Home ---------------------------------------- Oh, my AC stopped working this afternoon. If I put my hand right on the vent, I feel a tiny bit of cool, but it's not really blowing air inside, despite the fan on the AC unit outside spinning. Hope they fix it before that 95° high on Tuesday. … A maintenance guy showed up before the end of the day! He says I need a coolant refill. He'll try to get Central Maintenance to bring coolant soon, but maybe not today. … The Central guy showed up after six. Sorry to keep him so late, but thankful he came. … He dumped a bunch of coolant in it, but said he'd probably come back to replace the outside unit next week. It's in bad shape. … (First guy: mask, but he pulled it down to talk to me; second guy: no mask.) https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/98-01-02-4848 > he takes great pains to prove, for instance, that Hamilton was no monarchist, by exaggerating his own intimacy with him and the impossibility, if he were so, that he should not, at some time have betrayed it to him. this may pass with uninformed readers, but not with those who have had it from Hamilton’s own mouth. I am one of those, and but one of many. at my own table, as well as elsewhere, I have heard him and mr Adams both avow their preference of monarchy, and especially that of England, over all other governments. both agreed it was the most perfect model of govmt ever devised by the wit of man: mr Adams adding only ‘if it’s corruptions were done away,’ and Hamilton that ‘with these corruptions it was perfect, and without them it would be an impracticable government.’ > …being fresh from the French revolution while in it’s first and pure stage, and consequently somewhat whetted up in my own republican principles… > And after all it is but a truth which exists in every country where not suppressed by the rod of despotism. men, according to their constitutions, and the circumstances in which they are placed, differ honestly in opinion. some are whigs, liberals, democrats, call them what you please; others are tories, serviles, aristocrats EtC. the latter fear the people, and wish to transfer all power to the higher classes of society. the former consider the people as the safest depository of power, in the ultimate, they cherish them therefore, and wish to leave in them all the powers to the exercise of which they are competent. this is the division of sentiment now existing in the US. it is the common division of whig and tory, or, according to our denominations, of Republican and Federalist, and is the most salutary of all divisions. it ought therefore to be fostered, instead of being amalgamated. for, take away this, and some more dangerous division will take it’s place. but there is really no amalgamation. the parties exist now as heretofore. Michigan changed their reporting today to use a new half-broken widget instead of a simple HTML table, and also started including presumptive cases. I suspect it messed up the testing numbers.
