I had one of those teachers that really loved what he did, and his heart was in every lesson. We studied the diaries of the conquistadors, describing the Southwest. 400 years ago much of what is desert now was grassy prairie. Folks think global warming is a new phenomenon. Great Mr. Milo made his students aware of the changing world in the 70s. Author R.
