Why Writing?
All that chatter in one's brain?! Cured for me by writing down my thoughts and forcing my brain to clarify and order them. To pick the words for precision. The order of the words to clarify thinking. Perhaps this effort is a constant Socratic forum for my brain to achieve more and more.

FILM: "A BRIDGE TOO FAR" - TRIV
One of my favorite films about World War II with genuinely great actors (as compared to most of today's poseurs) who could really carry a scene.
The desperate gamble of Montgomery was a fool's errand, crushing the British 1st Airborne.
"Historians have been critical of the planning and execution of Operation Market Garden. Antony Beevor said that Market Garden "was a bad plan right from the start and right from the top".[23][24][25]"
Interesting facts here about the film and what they had to go through logistically to get all the tanks, planes, etc. This is a film with actual vehicles and not digital recreations.
