Russian author Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn:

“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States ... nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
― Isaac Asimov

I read Robert A. Heinlein's novel 'Stranger in a Strange Land' about 50 years ago (I was 16). The Fair Witness character has stuck with me ever since. If you ask a Fair Witness "what color is that house?" she'll look and say "it's white on this side." I've tried to live that way.

Any comments from designers? Before and after Walmart logo change:

We're in a Brave New World, but we don't have soma. They used to call Television "the opiate of the masses" - that's social media now - but in some places it's more like "the methamphetame of the masses."

The Man Who Saw Seconds by Alexander Boldizar. Relentless pacing, thought-provoking, and fun.

This one found me. I was just sitting at my camp. Copperhead.

♫ Love to eat them mousies,
Mousies what I love to eat,
Bite they little heads off,
Nibble on they tiny feet... ♫

After chasing each other for over an hour... peace.
