Quote of the day

As you can see, juggling lab and fatherhood has left me no time to blog. So now that I'm waiting for the centrifuge to cool down I'll take this opportunity to quote a great musician whose words have some resonance these days:

Cranium implants, false debt, funny money, dead sat heart, signs of the empire in decline, stretching the bottom line without regard to time or limits of mankind, paying no attention to the laws of cause and effect, advance and decline, the ways of ancient biorythms, science, no conscience.

-Steve Coleman, from the song No Conscience, off of Steve Coleman and the Five Element's CD, Rhythm People: The Resurrection Of Creative Black Civilization.
