Framing

Wise man that Lincoln.

Wikiquote of the day:

“Kings had always been involving and impoverishing their people in wars, pretending generally, if not always, that the good of the people was the object. This our convention understood to be the most oppressive of all kingly oppressions, and they resolved to so frame the Constitution that no one man should hold the power of bringing this oppression upon us.” — Abraham Lincoln

Translucency? We don't need no stinkin' translucency!

A hearty Whoo-hoo! thanks to the 10.5.2 update.

Bonus and completely unrelated trivia for the day:

Both Abraham Lincoln and Charles Darwin were born on this date in 1809, the former in Hardin County, Kentucky, and the latter in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Happy birthday Abe and Chuck! Not too shabby of a duo!
