When I mentioned to my friend Carver Yu that I was reading this book, he scrunched up his face in the way that only a man who knows the field well can do and commented, `Well, of course, that book contains a fair bit of metaphysical speculation.’
Precisely. Continue Reading »

I have a colleague who travels even more than I do and proclaims his travel doctrine at every opportunity: ‘Don’t carry it if you can drag it.’

I tend to trust the buyers at Costco on products like this. Their judgments rarely fail, and they’ve certainly put good value for money into their warehouse store with the Uniden cordless phone.
