The title of this blog is my homage to a writer and a journalist, a man considered by many to be the conscience of his generation, Eric Blair aka George Orwell - his crystal clear prose, his felicity of language, his incisive grasp of contemporary issues. It strives as language as a clear pane of glass and this blog is an attempt, perhaps deeply inadequate, in that direction.

> "Edward Kennedy 1932 - 1977"
Is the 1977 part intentional?
No, a major typo!! Corrected with no trace of the original :)
