The History of Physics

'...simple machines, in themselves basic concepts, that make more complicated machines possible. I think you can name a few. Carter?' 'The wheel?'

Does a scientist necessarily have scientific temper?

War and Wax

Everyone who lived in the small town of Dalton, New Hampshire knew that the old wax museum was a place to be avoided. Even the annual tourist took one look at the building’s peeling paint job and ridiculous prices and drove quickly away to safer havens, like the local library or Marti’s Fry and Grill. Miss Vanessa’s Wax Figurines and Sculptures boasted an annual attendance rate of less than five persons per year.

The Last Caballero: What if I were there to see it all?

I stood there very old. Probably much older and much, much richer than the teeming crowd that surrounded me. I didn't look old. Well at least I didn't look anything like my age, nor did I appear to be one of the fabulously rich. I was one of the very few "grandfathered immortals."

A Splendid Sky

He died I know, I saw him
As we lay there in the snow
Frost bitten, cold and hungry
I watched his spirit go

The first death here of human kind
Explorers from old Earth
No longer do I mind
For we’ve travelled this planets girth

They never said it was a one way trip
That was not the true intent
But our ship, it landed badly
It looked so oddly bent

Walk fast they said
A rescue ship is on the other side
There’s food and a nice warm bed
A short time only will they abide
