My Storm Glass Has a Clump In It




A short time after I wrote this last week the clump fell to the bottom.

I'm going to use my wife's hair dryer to heat the liquid until all of it dissolves. Then it will have a new start. I think it does not actually predict anything but it's fun to watch.

    I see you have a Stirling engine on your desk. How well does it work?

      The Sterling engine works well. Using an insulated coffee mug I once had it run for three hours. It ran very slowly towards the end.

    What fun! I have a gr-son who will be 8 in just a few months. He would love this.

Understanding the Introvert

I have to admit it. I'm an introvert and this article explains it best. I need friends as much as anyone but I just find it difficult.  Anyway, I'm better off this way than being with people who are phony and manipulative.  Here is a copy of the article from the "Lifehack" site: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/you-didnt-get-why-you-couldnt-get-along-with-introverts-before-you-read-this-youll-understand-after.html The website is on my list of interesting sites.

QWERTY vs DVORAK Keyboard

I never knew there was a different type of keyboard like DVORAK instead of QWERTY (named after the first six letters on the left of the first row) , at least not in English or similar languages. Chinese has a modified QWERTY keyboard something like: Or maybe this keyboard below is purely Chinese: Back to English:  The video below explains why the QWERTY keyboard is used almost 100% today and some future possibilities.  Not changing my keyboard, it's not worth the effort for me .
