Announcement THE FLASHLIGHT is about to turn on.
On Friday, July 21, the first posting of a Weekly World News Summary for Quakers and other peace lovers will make its first appearance.
The blogger is a retired History professor located in Palo Alto, California. This News Summary was originally commissioned by the Peace and Social Action Committee of Palo Alto Friends Meeting. It is usually one to three pages long and is a digest of at least: PBS and CNN News, the daily New York Times, the daily Washington Post, Time, Newsweek, The New Yorker, and The Economist It has also digested some long documents: the Israel Lobby and the full text of the speech of Steven Colbert to the National Press Club.
Editorial comments in The Flashlight are sparse. The Quaker viewpoint is expressed by the selection of material to be digested. Humorous quotations are frequent.
Responses will be welcomed.
