Thursday, January 16, 2003. Many scholars agree that the advancement and perhaps even survival of the human race is dependent on communication. When Neanderthals and Homosapiens shared the planet,. One species died out and one survived. The Neanderthal had the clear advantage of extended snout, offering him the obvious olfactory benefits. However, such a snout could. Not support the complex speech patterns required for group organization and communication. How did we survive without elongated snouts?

Thursday, June 30, 2005. Tomlinson: Using the worst yardstick ever. Like most hardcore listeners of NPR. Now, I know that the study looked at much more than that. It categorized the political stance of the guests or callers on the show as well. Still, to even suggest that PBS is left-leaning because the host. Happens to be a liberal, or believe this or that (providing he/she doesn't announce it on the show or tout it around like fact), should have nothing to do with any supposed bias of the show. A ClALl...

He's an American with plenty of excellent contacts to people who've done research in or near Kerinci Seblat national forest (where we will be). This is truly stroke of luck as his help has been enormously invaluable. Today we visited the (famed? Tim is back in action.

Tuesday, July 19, 2005. Grown women say "retard". I was watching the President's address this evening concerning the naming of the next Supreme Court Justice Roberts while cleaning up the kitchen a bit. PBS apparently only carried it on their HDTV channel, so I had to switch to a snowy CBS broadcast ("why watch what everyone else is watching? And with that I leave you to return to my book concerning an adventure across Borneo. So proclaimed at 9:16 PM. Saturday, July 02, 2005. Great moments in acquisition.

Friday, January 28, 2005. Know what I've gotten into lately? Since I lost/discarded/quit my job last year, I've revived a much needed practice: sleeping until noon. No, sadly I have not. I interviewed at RTI International. A couple of weeks ago, and I'm still waiting to hear back. In the meantime, I've been keeping busy. Katie makes me get up each morning by 8 or 9am to take her to school. Despite my morning grumblings to her, I really appreciate the forced awakening. Otherwise, I would. My physics engin...
