Previously, Brian Love, our Visiting Advice Columnist for 2007-2008, received the following questions:
Dear Mr. Love,
For years, after a rainstorm, upon seeing a great many worms displaced from the earth, I have had the compulsion to take each worm, one by one, and replace them back into the dirt. It has always been my belief […]
