Columns

By James M. Read, Ph.D.

The following columns were written by Dr. Read, and originally published in The Idaho Statesman between June 1982 and January 1994. This list will expand as time allows. Eventually, we hope to have more of the columns available for on-line viewing.

This is just a beginning. I wrote about 650 weekly columns, so there are lots more to put up here. If I can figure out how to scan them into my computer... heck, then I'll be able to put LOTS of them on this site. So far it's all by keyboard, and a lot of work! Newspaper columns do not appear to scan very well, and the OCR software I have is sadly lacking!
