Oliver Sacks
I remember the bookstore in Buffalo where I found “The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat” in 1985. I finished the book before I went to bed. Starting the next day, I relied on the work of Oliver … Continue reading
Pope Francis
“When people ask for a blessing, an exhaustive moral analysis should not be placed as a precondition for conferring it. For those seeking a blessing should not be required to have prior moral perfection.” “A little bit of mercy makes the … Continue reading
Is Kwantlen Student Association trying to kill student newspaper?

Twitter alternatives
This is a clear picture from The Evening Standard. I think that, looking back, Twitter will be regarded as an unnecessary calamity rather than as a necessary community.
Yelling at your editor
