During WWII, the combined force and the German camp started a new battle that probably bears more significance than the fierce fight at the battlefield. The battle was on who would be the first to develop the dreadful nuclear bomb which can reverse the tide of the war… [More]

During my childhood, the house on the top of the hillside threw me tons of questions. Things like who lived there and what part of the house the protruded thing would be when looked closer. I can’t even count how man times I had to turn back because I couldn’t cross… [More]

For people in the modern world, morning refers to the time from when you wake up to when you begin work. Although the bulk of the time is spent doing mechanical technical, automated and limited activities, just like anything else in the world, there are different vintage… [More]

I am in search of a legendary work. It is literally a legend. Some say it is just an illusion, some say it didn’t exist at all. That may be so. It surely isn’t seen anywhere today. However, I cannot imagine that it never existed or that it vanished. Never! Why… [More]

A few years before the dawn of the 20th century (not 21st century!), the former director of the United States Patents and Trademark Office wrote a serious letter to the President. ‘I think all the inventions that we can think of have been invented. I think it is time to close down the office.’ Holy cow!

The Noble Prize winning philosopher Bertrand Russell had talked about the usefulness of ‘useless knowledge’ – how the seemingly useless knowledge encourages deliberation and enriches one’s life. For example, Bertrand talked about how apricot bears fruit earlier than other fruit and how its Latin root is the same as precocious… which dynasty in China started growing apricots among others, saying that such miscellaneous knowledge helps to make apricot jam tastier!… [More]

Good afternoon! It’s debate time again! There is the saying: ‘A flying bird can see widely in high sky’, But a bird that flies low can see better. So, it’s good either way. Not only to mention the early bird thing (If you are a worm, please sleep til late) Then, what would be of value or a virtue in the world of fish from the human’s eyes?… [More]

Where am I? I let my feet take me where they want to and find me standing in the middle of nowhere. But what difference does it make? I take another step. I must have walked a good 2~3 hours. I slowdown a bit to allow myself some rest. Feels like the right timing to lean on a streetlight and smoke a cigarette, casually checking the time with my watch – just like a page in a catalogue. But… I am exhausted to death! I don’t smoke and neither do I have a watch! What on earth was I thinking?… [More]
