what you get here

This is not a blog which opines on current events. It rather uses incidents, books (old and new), links and papers to muse about our social endeavours.
So old posts are as good as new! And lots of useful links!

The Bucegi mountains - the range I see from the front balcony of my mountain house - are almost 120 kms from Bucharest and cannot normally be seen from the capital but some extraordinary weather conditions allowed this pic to be taken from the top of the Intercontinental Hotel in late Feb 2020

close to nature


Difficult to find an image which can convey the beauty of this place - at this time.
But living close to nature is... back-breaking. For example heating - no easy turn of a switch. You need to find and order wood; transport, store and protect it; cut it; keep the power saw maintained; carry the logs to the boiler; make the fire; oversee the dials which are like ParaHanda's Puffer; fill the logs every 6 hours; clean, clean and clean.....endless....No wonder I cheat - and use the electric heater whenever I can get away with it
