Most of my heros have been thinkers. I liked Roy Rogers, Superman and Batman when I was a child. Batman was the easy favorite because he didn't use a gun and didn't have any special powers. What he did depended on only a well trained mind and body. (and a few gadgets from the utility belt occasionally)
When I got a little older I learned about Einstein, Edison and later a man named Tesla. Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla held my attention for their feats of intellectuality as I soon realized the Edison was a great innovator more than a great inventor.
Sports figures never really had the appeal of thinkers. A few Chess players and auto racers but those that focused on the body more than the mind did not impress me.

I believe that our evolution is slow to manifest in physical form, but will occur exponentially in the mind. Once certain basic programming has taken place the mind will transform, rewire and recircuit itself much like the regular transformations that occur in computer power.
Remember what it was like doing anything under Windows 95? Imagine what it will be like solving problems with Human Mind 2.0

May 25th is officially Towel Day

Don't forget: May 25th is officially Towel Day. It is a tribute to a mostly harmless author named Douglas Adams.

And don't panic, Just in case you lost yours to a Vogon Haiku we have you covered (!)
