Beautiful Essays. Sip.
(3)
We need to transition from ugly to beauty. Almost anything will work in that regard, but I think you will appreciate the following links (tap) (!), which I have been researching recently:
----------
Volcano Lightening. I saw this on TV recently.
(Holy?) Grail Maps the Moon's Gravity.
----------
Plus the following Marijuana links. But first, I need to remind you that the human brain evolved successfully because it 'worked quite well.' 'Survival' was the ultimate criterion. Brains that did not work well, died. Prematurely. Eventually, the Pragmatic Brain evolved to such a level that it could appreciate 'higher functions' beyond mere survival. It discovered Beauty. Excess neurons must have been responsible for that glorious addition, and, apparently, 'beauty' turned out to have 'survival value!' I wonder how ancient humans came to experience beauty. I suspect that Mother Nature saw that the 'time was right' and so She provided needed chemical components in the form of plants like Marijuana. Ancient humans must have noticed that when certain plants burned 'en mass,' they inhaled the smoke and experienced amazing effects. They liked it! They began growing and smoking those plants. Ganja was born. Mother Nature did not stop at Marijuana, of course. She provided many other 'living things' which, when 'consumed,' tended to enhance animal experiences of 'Beauty.' This leads me to believe that 'Beauty' was a necessary evolutionary experience leading to Modernity. Interestingly, if you do not believe in 'Mother Nature' you must attribute God Himself as the creator of those various naughty plants. (Michael Moore is on TV just now. I love Michael Moore! Kootch and I are currently watching his movie, Capitalism: A Love Story.) And we all know that the Jewish god was not at all naughty. Right? Not at all. Not. At. All. Read The Bible.
Here are the links:

Marijuana Uses. After reading a definitive sample of these essays I can attest to their individual beauty. Highly recommended! They are well worth reading. You will love them.
