Let me just throw one more shrimp on the barbie (wait, no, that's Australian) . . .
I mean, I'm always impressed by the tradition of the Cambridge colleges, and Saint Catharine's (founded 1473) has its share. More of that later, but I did want to post a picture of the globe owned by the college that had been given to them by Sir Isaac Newton (housed in one of the common rooms--the globe, not Newton). This is just one of the close-ups to history that we enjoy here.
