Circular.

They drew straight lines across the sky and down into the sea.

Somewhere, and we really are looking, they found a way to turn gold into water and rice into silk. 

They. We need not know or concern ourselves who they are. And that is because we too are alive, thinking, functioning beings. 

We will bring ecstatic plenty to your table. 

Pick up a fork. And be your better you for better always. Hmmm.

Before the sun sinks too far – we do not wish it to drown – we want to say a few words

– do not doubt that you have created conditions under which we have met the greatest of people, wonderful and fine and joyful

Science has the answers….a nonsensical statement. Within the knowledge of science answers can be found to everything known within science so far.

Science is not a person, a library, a thing, it is a huddle of items of knowledge in the world.

But, when you learn that science and “the arts” are not totally disconnected, not the opposing walls of a racketball court, then you are ready to make real progress. 

I am. We are. Let’s go.

Seeking sense using  a complicated formula while many people walk by. 

The wise men and women of the city were sure they had made things too complicated.

Could we not just say “yes” or “no” without debating every single simple point. 

That was it! Simple points. Keep it to that. 

Did the Mad Hatter have the answer?

Have we been trumped or shall we wait until May? But perhaps there is nothing to put in. 

Yes, you may laugh now… if you need to.
