I am an experiment.

 

Occasionally a fortune-cookie message is of unexpected interest:

 

The real meaning of enlightenment

is to gaze, with undimmed eyes,

on all undimmed.

 

Nature gave us one tongue

and two ears, so we could hear

twice as much as we speak.

 

Thank you for coming.

I may have missed the heyday.

Nevertheless, feel free to contact me.
