The internet went down yesterday, as did our phones because we have Vonage, and I was so lost. (I did get a lot of work done without any distractions)<BR/><BR/>Written language is a miracle. Think about it. I can walk over to my shelf, open "Walden Pond" and there will be Thoreau's voice in my head. It's like a time machine without all the nasty side effects. <BR/><BR/>MarilynThetoymakershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405265800595978197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074861.post-32064628818051410602007-07-02T10:32:00.000-04:002007-07-02T10:32:00.000-04:00Quoted in Time?

Making the starter is complicated enough. Keeping it alive is even tougher.<BR/><BR/>And anyone who bakes has to be amazed that somebody figured out how to take the yeast from the brewing process and use it in baking.<BR/><BR/>Another miracle: BLT sandwiches.

What floors me is that I am a creature with its own self-run regulating system, of which I am not aware, looking at another entirely different creature, say, that chlorotic pin oak out the window, that has its own self-run system that is completely different than mine. And I'm like, How on earth did we luck out so effectively, to even come into being in the first place!<BR/><BR/>I guess that turned out to be a homily but I'm not Catholic.Melinda R.

I was just thinking about photosynthesis when I was lying on the grass in my friend's backyard today and I thought back to my Bio class last year and how insane-ly complicated the entire process of photosynthesis is.<BR/><BR/>I also wanted to congratulate you on the Time Magazing quote and mentioning =).
