From Andy Kessler’s column in today’s (March 20, 2020) Wall Street Journal:

By now you may have read about how Isaac Newton, while sheltering in place during the 1665 closure of the University of Cambridge for the bubonic plague, used his free time to discover gravity and invent calculus. And how during the closing of London theaters due to plague in 1606, William Shakespeare had nothing better to do and wrote “King Lear” and “Macbeth.” Those guys didn’t even have Wi-Fi. You do, plus extra time. Be productive.

I’m making my email pals smarter by emailing newspaper clips such as this one, making the world a better place. ;>) You?
