Quote of the Day (7/16/08)

Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.
Most of my advances were by mistake. You uncover what is when you get rid of what isn't.
Thinking is a momentary dismissal of irrelevancies.
When I am working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only of how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.
- All from R. Buckminster Fuller, 1895 - 1983
