Thought for the Day -- Definition of a Human Being
The science fiction author Robert Heinlein once said
"A human being should be able to --
change a diaper,
plan an invasion,
butcher a hog,
conn a ship,
design a building,
write a sonnet,
balance accounts,
build a wall,
set a bone,
comfort the dying,
take orders, give orders,
cooperate, act alone,
solve equations,
analyze a new problem,
pitch manure,
program a computer,
cook a tasty meal,
fight efficiently,
die gallantly.
Specialization is for insects."
How many of these can YOU do?
