Hi all,

 "mused" "a day at the park" by Kostas Kiriakakis

I ran across this curious article the other day:

 If you have an extremely weak stomach then don't try this. Lay on your bed on your stomach. Lift your head, face forward, and begin moving your whole head in big horizontal figure eights (like an infinity symbol with the loops left and right) about one per second (I like to say 'One Mississippi') for maybe 20 seconds then stop. Crazy people may want to experiment with longer.

 I found this article about how Germany's government committment to extensive solar array building has now dramatically cut the cost of electricity during the daylight hours... Really exciting news! And this in spite of multiple assaults on solar by government shifting policies and reducing supports. Incidentally, every energy system rollout ever done-coal, oil etc.

This, to me, is the most significant thing I have ever stumbled across. (Clumsy. Who knew, .. right?) When I first read this particular chapter, I remember saying "That's it. Fight's over. Yee fricken haw, I knew it!"

I have since, went back and read the whole book, BEYOND THE HUMAN CONDITION. All I can say is ... Yee fricken haw!
If it doesn't hit you right away ...... it will down the road.
