"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Time for the Future
"Imagine a clock that keeps time for thousands of years. It ticks every 10 seconds, chimes once a millennium, and self-corrects for variations in Earth’s rotation. Such a clock is inventor Danny Hillis’s dream, and it’s coming alive inside a mountain in West Texas. “I got tired of only working on projects that were rush rush rush to get something done quickly. I wanted to work on something that mattered over the longer term,” says Hillis, cofounder of the research and development company Applied Minds. He says the clock is like a time capsule, in that it reaches out to connect with the future."
