I’m still here … somewhere. With any luck, the math will resume shortly. Not this week, due to projects and things. Not next week, due to finals and things, but soon enough, and plentifully so. With any luck : )
Something to ponder.
“The key to why things change is the key to everything. How easy is it for knowledge to spread? In the past, the people who made change happen were the people who had that knowledge, whether they were craftsmen or kings. Today, the people who make things change, who have that knowledge, are the scientists and the technologists, who are the true driving force of humanity. And before you say, what about the Beethovens and the Michelangelos, let me suggest something with which you may disagree violently. That, at best, the products of human emotion – art, philosophy, politics, literature – are interpretations of the world that tell you more about the guy who’s talking than the world he’s talking about. Second hand views of the world, made third hand, by your interpretation of them.”
- James Burke
