Saving the planet through wool and maths
“There in wool, we have the contradiction of one of the fundamentals assumptions of maths.”
(I may have mis-quoted, but that’s the thrust of it.)
Nice TED video, plus (text) interview with the presenter.
toddler conversations
Bob was talking on his mobile and when he’d finished A told him to put it away “inna pocket.”
“you’re going to grow up…” he began, but before he could finish, “to be very clever!” she interrupted with a very solemn, “No.” “Oh, but I’m afraid you are going to grow up, one day!” “No, I’m A!” “Yes but one day you’ll be grown up.” “No, I’m A!”
A: “I’m a girl.”
B: “Yes, and what is K?”
A: “He’s a boy.”
B: “Yes! And what about J?”
A: “He’s a girl, no he’s a boy!”
B: “Yes! And L?”
A: “L a Monday!”
B: “Oh!”
A: “And A a Tuesday!”
