Not that pardoning a long-dead man makes a whole lot of difference except to any relatives, but it would be a nice gesture if Trump did it.
Some day somebody might do the same for him.

I have been slacking off around here, but the weather has turned beautiful and my mind is often elsewhere. I never used to miss days blogging. I have probably missed more days this year than I have the previous 15 years in the history of this blog.

Obituary: Japan's Nabi Tajima, 117, the world's oldest person, has reportedly died. She has 160 descendants, including having great-great-great grandchildren.
She was just about the last person born in the nineteenth century. The year 1900 is in fact the last year of the nineteenth century, and not 1899, so reports that an Italian woman who died last year as being the last person born in the nineteenth century are inaccurate. She was the last person born in the 1800s.
