One Should Never Mistake Pattern For Meaning.

My Gratitude Extends Beyond The Limits Of My Capacity To Express It.

I Deliberately Keep Myself Apart From A Lot Of Stuff; I Don't Tweet, I Don't Do Facebook, I Don't Blog, And That's Largely Because I Spend My Working Life Staring At A Screen And Hitting A Keyboard, I Am Trying To Cut Down On That, Not Increase It.

That Was How Divorced From The Human Scale Modern Warfare Had Become. You Could Smash And Destroy From Unthinkable Distances, Obliterate Planets From Beyond Their Own System And Provoke Stars Into Novae From Light-years Off... And Still Have No Good Idea Why You Were Really Fighting.

I Think A Lot Of People Are Frightened Of Technology And Frightened Of Change, And The Way To Deal With Something You're Frightened Of Is To Make Fun Of It. That's Why Science Fiction Fans Are Dismissed As Geeks And Nerds.

Empathize With Stupidity And You're Halfway To Thinking Like An Idiot.
