Onward
A good session this evening (thanks, Andrew!), including two interesting things to talk about, one of which was XpertWeb and the other of which was about folding layered maps (hard copies) of cities.
Internet governance isn't everything. It felt good to talk about inventions.
On the way back from Cape Town last weekend, I was in coach in a seat that didn't recline. And the overhead lighting wasn't working. But the guy across the aisle from me took pity on me and leaned forward so that the light above his seat would shine on the page of the book I was reading. The book was “Long Walk To Freedom,” by Nelson Mandela (warmly recommended). In it, Mandela said he was allowed in prison (in the early days) to write only one letter of 500 words every six months. Which made me sheepish about my feelings about the non-reclining/dark seat, and grateful for the kindness of the guy across the aisle.
Choose your words carefully.
