a little more on inertia...

I always wonder how we manage these....

fool's awake since 8 a.m. but rolls out of bed at 2 p.m.

procrastinating doing an essentially half an hour assignmnent for 2&1/2 days till it can be done no more(in both senses ).

Anytime you hear 'this is the way we've always done things so that's the way it will be done'.

Newton sure was onto something big when he ruled on Inertia.

Inertia of convenience is what i think is generally overlooked. The little silly things we do out of habit and convenience when we know otherwise.

Sleeping that half an hour more. Playing with your pimple. Being an unsociable idiot.
Not bothering to shave for months at a time(apparently a stubble isn't ok but a full beard is - but does the full beard count as one when the point of growing it was not decorative but merely to have a more composite stubble?).

And that's why it rains so much in Mumbai i guess.
Just because it does every year and its supposed to every year.
Some one read the history of the Sahara to the BMC/MMRDA.

Yes, i strongly believe they should take the responsibility for the weather.
Not for the implications of and infrastructure to deal with the weather, but the weather itself.

I want a yearly weather policy and guided, personalised, localised targeted weather. Not weather that is because it simply is.

Im not asking us to move into a climate controlled glass fish bowl. I just want a temperature,pressure and humidity knob to be included for the Earth(with none of the wisdom and maturity required to use it).


And isn't Earth a giant fishbowl after all - 70% water, shiny objects all around, lots of fish, spherical shape and open at the top (depleted ozone layer over the arctic) and completely irrelevant in the scheme of things to come.

Enjoy!
