When you look for ideas When you look for ideas, ideas find you! Think about it. I'm referring back to Wednesday's post about my one-year blog anniversary. Obviously, from a humanitarian point of view, I don’t think I’ve advanced science, but in my own individual case, I believe I have…
When the world doesn't help us At the moment, I would say that the world is not helping me with my choice of subjects. Let’s try and have a think anyway. I was asked the question about what has happened to some of my projects. So here are some details.…
When you don’t know what to think any more I’ll continue with my curveball about Iran. I hope you can forgive me. Let’s see. Still today, there is radio silence on the Twittersphere. How can we expect to remain silent in the face of such a situation? According to Wikipedia,…
