Miscellanea
Things I need to remember:
• Asking for help is not, as it turns out, fatal.
• Laughing is easier than pulling your hair out, and doesn't have the unfortunate side effect of making you look like a plague victim.
• Even the biggest tasks can be defeated if taken a bit at a time.
• I can write a paper the night before it's due, but the results are not all they could be.
• Be thorough, but focused.
• Trust yourself.
• Honesty, always.

Dangers of Solar and Wind
Date: May 18th, 2011 06:24 pm (UTC)We have seen what wind can do with tornadoes and hurricanes. There is no real way to control wind. So if we rely on wind power, well who knows what could happen if it gets out of control.
Note: I've heard real people speak these words from their own mouths.
