The Irish Potato Famines of 1845-49: A British Genocide?
As we Irish [and all others--remember everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day] get ready to celebrate St. Patrick's Day again with all of its gaieties, we should bear in mind the horrors of the last famine in Europe, the Irish potato famines of 1845-1849. Over 1 million Irish men and women lost their lives between 1845 and 1849, and a further million [the ancestors of the vast majority of Irish living in North America today]were forced to immigrate. This essay tries to examine whether the British actions in response to the famines amounted to genocide.

Theodor Geisel, a.k.a. Dr. Seuss, 1904-1991
Probably everyone not in a third world country (and maybe a lot of them, too) has heard of Dr. Seuss and his books. But perhaps only a few of these people know that Dr. Seuss (whose real name was Theodor Geisel) and his wife pioneered the Beginner Books division of Random House Publishers, and that many of his books were written as better beginning reading books than the then current Dick and Jane series used by schools nationwide. These readers of Dr. Seuss' contained only the 223 words considered useable by beginning readers. <i>Green Eggs and Ham</i> includes only 50 words and was written when Bennett Cerf bet Ted $50 he couldn't write a book using only that number of words. Ted met the challenge, but then "complained" throughout his life that Cerf never paid him the $50.
