Evolving Thoughts moves
May 23, 2009
So it is farewell... I have enjoyed blogging here at Seed, who have been generally very good to me given the constraints of herding cats with string they are working under, but it is time to move on.

Ask Ethan #37: The Earth’s Motion Through The Galaxy (Synopsis)
“There is no such thing as perpetual tranquillity of mind while we live here; because life itself is but motion, and can never be without desire, nor without fear, no more than without sense.” -Thomas Hobbes Well, it finally happened: someone asked me about the accuracy (or inaccuracy) of a certain viral video.
