GeneralA post-card for Raddevus Pin

Apparently sent from Tralfamador at an unknown date ... no post-mark ... the front of the card shows a fuzzy (pixelated ?) photograph of some kind of massive stone monument rising out of a desert plain, its shape suggestive of the question-mark glyph in the Roman alphabet used by many inhabitants of Earth ...

On the back, in a spidery Roman script ...

The future is unclear (thank the godz); the past is up for grabs, and continually re-edited (alas); the present is fragile, chaotic, overwhelmingly overburdened with infinite potential and relentless entropy (hallelujah).

To be sure you are a fool who fools himself, and others, is to be wise, and the reverse is equally true and false..

Greed is a certainty, creativity is probable.

Knowing the future is in the hands of brilliant, curious, minds like Raddevus who have the fire in the belly to question, to challenge, to innovate: is a comfort to an old man who takes refuge in the labyrinth of libraries on the Platonic planet's smooth orbit around the fringes of the bell-curve, far from the madding crowd jostling near the mean.

from Tralfamador, Billy Pilgrim
«Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?» T. S. Elliot
