I've been working on a project devoted to the work of Tom Paine and decided to start a Twitter account where I tweet his quotes and offer facts on the man's life—it just went live today. If you are on Twitter, I'd love to generate some followers.
David – Thank you for doing this. The words of Paine, and other Founding Fathers, are always worth reading and re-reading. I need to dust off my copies. Paine’s bio on several Web sites, say he left school at 13 to apprentice in his father’s business. Thirteen? That’s 7th grade. It must have been some school. Now I need to find a fuller account of his life and read how he acquired his enlightened opinions and his writing ability. Thanks again.
