Strange World

What a Strange World We Live In! The strangeness of our world is demonstrated by the things we take for granted. I bought a used book. The previous owner’s name was Mary Lou. I know this because she used the stub of her boarding pass as a book marker. A few years ago, Mary Lou […]

Connect the Dots

Connect the Dots I’ve noticed that people who are smart and know what they are talking about are usually the worst explainers. This is due to a condition called “the curse of knowledge.” When speaking about a subject we know intimately, we assume our audience has a higher level of familiarity with our subject matter than […]

Robertson Davies, The Merry Heart, p. 195-197

Its story is of the adventures of a gentleman whose wits have been turned by reading old books of romance and chivalry; he equips himself absurdly with miserable armour and an old and wretched horse, and he rides forth in search of adventures. Their story is not told with tidy literary art; it is a […]

Twenty-nine people were scheduled to be there. Only four of them showed up.

From left to right: Dr. […]

“I chased storms more than 20,000 miles to make this video.” This is one of the most difficult projects I have ever attempted. I was often uncomfortable, mentally or physically.

Stupid People

“In 1976, a professor of economic history at the University of California, Berkeley published an essay outlining the fundamental laws of a force he perceived as humanity’s greatest existential threat: Stupidity.” “Stupid people, Carlo M. Cipolla explained, share several identifying traits: they are abundant, they are irrational, and they cause problems for others without apparent […]

Meeting Them Where They Are

Reading that Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) was a Christian anarchist, I had an unexpected thought, so I asked Google, “What is the difference between an anarchist and a libertarian?” Six-tenths of a second later, The Goog told me – in a highly visible block at the top of the Search Engine Results Page: “An anarchist is an extreme […]
