| My Writing Elsewhere on the Web |
I posted a comment on someone else's idea on the NHLBI Strategic Visioning Forum, where people can post ideas and comments, and vote on them:
Yes, many years ago, I thought I might like to pursue a scientific career. Good thing I didn't, though... because I ended up with an embarrassingly major interest in astrology, among other odd paranormal topics. :-)
Though, I guess my interest in odd paranormal topics actually might not have destroyed my scientific career if I had one, because I probably would have kept my mouth shut about my interest in odd paranormal topics. But, I'm sure that would have felt quite unpleasantly stifling.
I don't expect to get inspired to post anything else to the NHLBI Strategic Visioning Forum, but, who knows? It's probably more likely that I will if someone comments on my comments or ideas.
More details about the NHLBI Strategic Visioning Forum and my previous posts there are in this post on Non24.Com, with the same post mirrored on Non24.Org.
