 Summer of Love Pat Wilson - He Followed
Beat to San Francisco - "It was this big party with this whole love
generation reaching out to each other," said Wilson, now 62 and living
in Taos, N.M. This summer marks the 40th anniversary of
the Summer of Love in 1967 in San Francisco. This is the sixth in a
series of profiles on San Bernardino area folks who were there.
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn,
burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across
the stars, and in the middle, you see the blue center-light pop, and
everybody goes ahh. ..." - From
"On the Road" by Jack Kerouac

 Star for Sarah B I really liked Sarah Battreall. We did a lot of work together on the Web and put together taosblog.com beginning a few years ago. Sarah was one of the most avid computer minds in Taos, and actually beyond Taos, too. She was awesomely good at finding and posting content on our blog. I learned a lot from her about content and how to use it to express the idea to a Web viewer. She was excellent with her Web work. Besides our work together as partners on taosblog.com, Sarah ran Elegant Web Designs and made Web sites for many Taos locals. You might well say that Sarah Battreall was a casualty of the Iraq War. |

 California Zephyr Stranded, alone and hundreds of miles from home, four Taos, New Mexico teens were left in western Arizona after they were kicked off a train. The teens, ranging in age from 12 to 15, were returning to New Mexico by Amtrak train Friday night after a trip to California. Trouble began when a passenger's iPod disappeared and one of the four New Mexico teens was accused of stealing it. That's when the train conductor kicked the teens off the train in Kingman, Arizona.

Two years ago, we in Taos had forest fires burning on four sides of town. Sure they were not as close as the July 4th Pueblo fire, but still... Now here's the latest. It's called the Double D Fire.

 J. R. Ransom Taos: Just Between Us 1, by J. R. Ransom: Most Taosenos are very hip to 'the Web'. In Taos, we've had it a long time. We've got good local infrastructure now - strong ISPs, good DSL lines and even some wireless in the valley. There are lots of places in Taos with wireless "hotspots." This is real helpful to all in Taos who see 'the Web' as a good way to pursue business.
What about the idea of looking at 'the Web' from a slightly different perspective? For example, a real estate agency is probably using 'the Web' to interface with the public to sell two real estate products - 1)'themselves' (as the best way to find the house and 'handle the deal'), as well as, of course, 2) 'the property.'
