imagine you are entering a highway but not a regular highway

We walk 'cept when we use crutches and a wheel chair.
We talk. We can see.
We spend our days organizing.
We spend our days smoothing the way towards a higher plane.
We walk, we type.
We have found ways to make things spin even bubble memory can spin just add a loop.
We write some code and apply it. We step onto a platform called the internet and zoomo we are flying.
I seek an internet connection to get back out on the net. I talk to myself on a phone... but by magic what I say is sliced, diced, and sent to a distant end in microseconds. Unbelievable.
We live in a golden age.
I wonder what you (the you whom you have become through continuous history) would be doing if it were 200 years ago?
We walk. we run.
The year is 1808.
One of my selves is back in the old country.
Living close to nature no matter what function I am doing.
How 'bout 400 years ago. Its not that long based on the history of the world.
And what is this place... does it exist if I don't? That is the coolest part.
What color is orange?
Can we all agree on a particular shade. Where do we get the baseline for determining that?
We live in a golden age where i can type on a Blog (when was this word invented) and when I save the record it will ping a server alerting all of my readers to the news. We live in a golden age.

the mark of greatness

The mark of a great organization is not that things
happen which are bad or uncontrollable but how they
handle those things.
Here is an image of the Robia lunette of Saint Michael commissioned 1475 for the church of San Michele Arcangelo in Fraenza, Italy. Recently the MET museum where it resides announced it fell and was damaged. They did not have to make this announcement. If they had not I never would have known. The MET exhibitions are so extensive I don't think anyone could keep up in a single lifetime. But the mere fact that a message was sent to all members alerting them of this tragedy and their plans on fixing it is commendable. Whomever had the "Chuzpah" to make this announcement deserves our gratitude and an award for open-ness and most importantly an award for the eternal vigilance we expect from the institution. Proud to be a member.
