The Times' They are A'Changin'
Friday July 27, 2001
- TITLE: "The Times' They are A'Changin'" "The Times'" are the LA Times, the Washington Times, and the London Times. The title is from the title of a 1964 song by Bob Dylan which includes this stanza:
 "Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'."
- "…G8 …" The G8 meeting consists of the G7 countries plus Russia. The G7 countries are the seven largest
economies: US, England, France, Germany, Canada, Italy and Japan. The term "G7" comes from the phrase "Group of
Seven." But, that might be a secret, so keep it to yourself.
- "... forest sink ..." In this context the word "sink" is used in the same manner as "heat sink" which is a device designed to
absorb and/or dissipate heat. A forest sink is a forest region which is enhanced to help absorb/dissipate carbon dioxide.
- "… London Times …" Here is the link to the entire Kyoto story in the London Times.
- "… LA Times …" Here is the link to the entire Patients' Bill of Rights story in the LA Times.
