Did a lot of it in my last job pre-2001.<br /><br />In the interest of this not being obvious about the subject of the post - More of the Bloodhound SSC project is getting kids interested in STEM learning and practice and less about actually running the car and making a new record. It was supposed to run in 2012, and now I wonder if it will ever run actually. I think it will, but probably not until they feel they've gotten every inch out of motivating the kids.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-78007065558379431882016-11-27T17:58:44.741-05:002016-11-27T17:58:44.741-05:00FT, Agree.

Call me a Luddite or an old fuddy duddy, if you like, but in my worldview Technology has far outpaced –– and far exceeded –– its usefulness in its original goal of improving the quality of life for the average person. It is no longer our servant; instead it has become our Master.<br /><br />I'm often reminded of a Pennsylvania Dutch saying these days:<br /><br /><b><i>The farther ahead I go, the behinder I get."</i></b><br /><br />That usually applies to the Wage-Price Inflation Spiral as an argument against Unionism and other Leftist schemes, but it works with robotization and excessive speed as well.<br /><br />I mean even the airplane has lost its appeal –– at least for me. It may be wonderful t be able to traverse entire continents in a few short hours, but the absolute HELL one must go through at each end of the journey makes Horseback, the Conestoga Wagon and the Stagecoach look almost attractive in comparison. ;-)FreeThinkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682678301019952436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-37991126983023490452016-11-27T06:22:52.277-05:002016-11-27T06:22:52.277-05:00That's right, Kid, but I believe it is up to e...That's right, Kid, but I believe it is up to each of us who is the least bit aware of these things to do our best to find Truth <i>[and I DON'T mean "facts" lined up in OPPOSITION to those we don't like or trust]</i> and do whatever we can to serve the highest principles and noblest goals in each of our daily transactions however small. <br /><br />Some have called this practice "religion," and Isuppose it is, but unless we choose to serve God, who is the embodiment and perfect expression of Truth and Love, all we can do is stumble blindly from crisis to crisis suffering and grumbling every step of the way. <br /><br />As has often been said, <i>"It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness."</i> <br /><br />I think we make a great mistake when we think we have to strive towards being "significant" or to do something "important." That in essence is Vanity, and it only leads to trouble. If we happen to achieve significance, that's great, but A) Don't expect to be applauded or rewarded for it, and B) Don't think it should entitle you to any special consideration.<br /><br />If that sounds cynical, please forgive me, because I think adopting a cynical attitude puts us n the Express Route to Hell. <br /><br />I think it helps to remember this:<br /><br /><b><i>"The Great are rarely famous, the famous rarely Great."</i></b>FreeThinkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682678301019952436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-52160599370848751962016-11-26T21:53:10.563-05:002016-11-26T21:53:10.563-05:00Cube, PS, NO positive change happened under obola....Cube, PS, NO positive change happened under obola.
