Whilst I was away in the Gold Coast where it is still 1992 and enjoying the delights of probably the worst hotel in Australia I caught up with this little piece in Time regarding optimism and its function as an evolutionary survival mechanism. “Scientists who study memory proposed an intriguing answer: memories are susceptible to inaccuracies partly…
Slate has an interesting take on what happens to those who predict an apocalypse that doesnt come.
