Welcome from another lover of the written word. I also love writing letters by hand, however, there are few who appreciate this lost art as you have pointed out.

The Man Who Made You Put Away Your Pen

'Mad Scientists,' Building The Future For 50 Years

Arlington Ladies Pay Tribute To Fallen Soldiers

An episode he wrote called "Chuckles Bites the Dust" was cited by TV Guide as the funniest sitcom episode ever.

Terra Cotta Warriors March Through Washington

In 1974, a group of farmers digging a well in central China stumbled upon a buried figure. It turned out to be one of an estimated 7,000 life-sized terra cotta warriors in an underground tomb complex. The warriors and a host of other figures were created for China's first emperor, Qin Shihuangdi. Host Guy Raz drops by the National Geographic Museum in Washington, D.C., to see an exhibit of the figures.

What The Future Holds When China Rules

In 'Prisoner,' Twisted Whimsy Flirts With New Fears
