passing thought


I was up at 6:00 to take pills but then went back to bed with radio 4 that had a never ending flood of stories. Media distraction. It would be ‘better’ to ‘just sit’. 

Various mini projects vied for prominence and there was no worry about running dry- BUT – they were not suitable for the blog.


Aha – what makes for a suitable blog entry? Avoid the petty, personal and parochial, and focus on the new and cutting edge. I have read over 30 recent books and have listened to many talks dealing with hot topics. The roots are ‘consilence’ from E O Wilson. This calls for cross-disciplinary thinking.


I do not claim to originality. My  goal is to create plain-language versions of the new ideas. Thus in a very minor way I contribute to making the world a better place.
