Index Card- Whatever Happened To… ? Tripoli 6; Iranian Women; Lost City

by Nanette

Index cards are just my shorthand notes for remembering this, that or the other thing that I might eventually want to type about (as sort of explained in this post.) Or maybe I just want to know about. While they are mainly personal notes, no formal format or anything, anyone is welcome to either comment on them, use them as a creativity jumpstart or add their own notes in comments.

Quite often I come across the beginnings (or middle of drama) stories that interest me, but for some reason I rarely come across the conclusion of the matter. So, these are just notes to - someday - follow up on and see if I can figure out where things are now.

• Tripoli Six, highlighted here. I think Effect Measure was going to update on that story, will have to remember to check in with them from time to time.


• Iranian women in danger of being stoned - highlighted here. Ali Eteraz seems the best overall source for info on that, but might also look for others - also see what else, good and bad, is happening with the women in Iran. And the men too, of course. Well, besides wondering if they are going to be bombed soon by the megalomaniacs with access to the buttons in the US.


• Terrance at Republic of T points to this story that states "The remains of what has been described as a huge lost city may force historians and archaeologists to radically reconsider their view of ancient human history.  Marine scientists say archaeological remains discovered 36 metres (120 feet) underwater in the Gulf of Cambay off the western coast of India could be over 9,000 years old." The article is from 2002 though, and so far (very quick looking) I can find no followup.

Okay, there are probably many more but if I don’t write them down, I tend not to remember them (CRS time of life, I’m thinking).
