QOTD: Wendell Berry
Even now, after centuries of reductionist propaganda, the world is still intricate and vast, as dark as it is light, a place of mystery, where we cannot do one thing without doing many things, or put two things together without putting many things together. Water quality, for example, cannot be improved without improving farming and forestry, but farming and forestry cannot be improved without improving the education of consumers — and so on.
The proper business of a human economy is to make one whole thing of ourselves and this world.
—Wendell Berry, from In Distrust of Movements

Finally: A solution for scatterbrains – Brett Terpstra
[Forgetfulness is] probably a result of choices I made in my younger years, but whatever the cause, I’m always looking for tools to make this easier. This post outlines a method that I’ve found very useful. You may have a different reaction, especially if you’re the type of person who remembers what they had for breakfast. If you’ve already forgotten about your Wheaties, read on.

This man also writes a lovely piece of note-taking software called nvALT, which is a lovely program to work with your Simplenote stuff. You should go download it.
