Quote Of The Day
"I personally don't believe in fate. But I do believe that brazen action versus inertia leads to people and events you couldn't have imagined."
(Diana Nyad)

Diana Nyad's autobiography, Find A Way, is a wonderful, inspiring read. 

My current read for the daily commute, by one of the grandmasters of S.F., is a terrific, nail-biting cross between The Poseidon Adventure and 2001: A Space Odyssey. 

There's a very good reason why the classics are regarded as classics.
