The other day when I was trying to decide if I should post a photograph of a John Marin painting from the San Diego Museum of Art, I went on to use a statement by John Muir that I’d had on my mind all day... and absent mindedly credited the American Impressionist Artist with Muir’s comment about the connectedness of all things in the universe. My penance is to include today something said by Marshall McLuhan in 1965. It doesn’t have anything to do with lemons or orchids, both pictures I got today, and nothing to do with John Muir; but here McLuhan’s statement anyway... along with John Marin’s painting.

“There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are all crew.”
