LINCOLN ACADEMY: Richard Boynton: Planet Earth

April 29, 2019, 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM @ Bemis Hall

Come to Bemis Hall on Monday, April 29 , at 12:30 pm when Richard Boynton discusses “Planet Earth.” Earthquakes, volcanic explosions, tsunamis, solar storms – what is happening in our world? Although it seems that we have been beset with a rash of recent global disasters, in fact many of these have been occurring for eons, often more severely than now. Richard Boynton, former rocket scientist and president of an aerospace company, will give down-to-earth explanations of these natural phenomena. He will discuss plate tectonics, noting that 250 million years ago the Earth was a single land mass, and the 11 year cycle of sun storms, set to peak again in 2023. Boynton will also produce irrefutable evidence of global warming. Richard Boynton is an engineer, a writer, a musician, and an artist. The COA provides beverages and dessert. The lectures last about an hour, including a question and answer period. Participants are welcome to stay after the program to continue their discussion.

Meanwhile, George Edalji (also a real historical person) is a country lawyer struggling to make a living, but facing constant persecution due to his Indian heritage. When George is tried and convicted of the mutilation of animals, he sends the facts of the case to the famous writer. Arthur immediately sees that he cannot be guilty of the unspeakable acts.
