Moscow, Ontario History

From the book CAMDEN TOWNSHIP HISTORY 1800 - 1968 (Compiled by The Camden Township History Committee of 1967 - 70. It is no longer in print. I left out some less interesting stuff, and added to it from my own research. I might add more to this): Elijah was the son of Elias Huffman, one of a party of United Empire Loyalists who left their homes in the New England states during the American Revolutionary War. They landed at Adolphustown in the County of Lennox and Addington on June 16, 1784. The descendants of at least 5 families of that party played a part in the early settlement of Moscow. Colt: The Huffman family, including the eldest sons Elijah and Jacob, lived on the banks of the Napanee River. In [the Fall of, at age 30 - according to the book COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT LEEDS, FRONTENAC, LENNOX AND ADDINGTON, and PRINCE EDWARD COUNTIES . It is out of print] 1823, Elijah went on a hunting [and exploration - according to that previous book] trip. A surveyor’s post that he discovered had ev

Unseen Consequences Of Racism

Depression can cause heart disease. Heart disease drugs can have side effects and cost money. Cancer costs the healthcare system. The treatment can be brutal. Cancer could scare their family members. The last little part of their life can be not pleasant for cancer sufferers and their family. If a dark colored person got cancer or committed suicide, that could mean 1 less person working. Depression can kill motivation/stop a dark colored person from working. Loss of loved ones, can lead to depression/loss of conversation and suicide. What if a surviving family member lost more family members in a vehicle accident? Depression can lead to Alzheimer's/death/1 less person working. If a dark colored person got PTSD, they might lose sleep, which could lead to a heart attack, stroke, or Alzheimer’s. They might suffer a stroke in their sleep/not notice it.

Stuff Related To Presumption

A military person could ask 'How could this limit in this weapon/vehicle/thing be overcome'? I've had ideas. So would others with high IQ, paid to spend time thinking about such things. Some people probably presumed automatic vehicles were not worth the risk to develop, as they may be hacked or a glitch could occur. There may be less deaths, as many accidents are human caused. There are more accidents and deaths per year than you may think, especially in certain often traveled areas. Thalidomide was a big disaster with many people affected and killed. It was used in Germany, even after they should have learned their lesson from the drug Meth. A young person may presume that they can't get a certain job. A high school "guidance" counselor told someone something along the lines of "you wouldn't make a good radio host." The young guy eventually became a great/popular radio host. He had a good voice and he was cool and funny. That makes me think: peo

Colt Babcock's Autobiography Part 5

I held my bladder for a while. So I started going more often, in case that could take it easier on it. Then I started having to go too often. ‘Retraining’ as a doctor called it, worked. Probably at least 4 years before 2022/now, my butt was sore, due to sitting too long, or from using the washroom. So I got up to walk a bit, to prevent a hemorrhoid, in case that could happen. I think that is what started me taking short walking breaks inside. Eventually, I walked fast/short distances inside for energy. Eventually, I couldn’t sit or stand in 1 spot for long, without butt pain in 1 spot, or tiredness/low energy (i.e. in a few minutes). If I didn't walk in a continuous route, I got butt pain, unless I was physically tired. I had to do probably 8 or 12 laps around the island in the kitchen. That tired me/maybe helped get my mind off it. When things were worse, I could only sit for probably 30-40 seconds, which is not nice when you want to enjoy a show. The short sitting times is partia
