Truly
reprehensible are they who would seek to profit by the continuing
ignorance of others. Equally contemptible are those who would
always sneer at such ignorance, and even any striving by others to
overcome this disadvantage, while, at the same time, carefully
concealing their own lack of useful knowledge. Commerce,
education, and society-at-large, are all blighted by fostering such
malicious attitudes. Furthermore, consumer education should
not
be regarded as a form of industrial or commercial espionage, and, not
all of the people need to learn the hard way, all of the
time.
Surely then, the definition of a good business relationship is a
knowledgeable and confident customer dealing with a trustworthy
merchant, and, as the occasion will, of course, demand, vice
versa?

processor, browser, and/or Adobe Reader,
are recommended as being useful to track key words or phrases. To open

bear with the Courier New, the author is somewhat
dyslexic, this
font is easiest to read and manage for ongoing updates and for
provision of wysiwyg PDF and WORD printouts, as well as being easy on
printer ink. Arial font is used for the larger
completed
WORD and PDF documents. Colour coding of text also helps with
discernment, as well as aiding navigation and portraying emphasis. FYI,
a very useful reference for anyone interested in dyslexia is DITT

A
Thought For The Ages: Einstein
actually regarded himself as being a slow thinker, and, what was good
enough for Einstein should be good enough for the rest of
us. So, we who follow him humbly in our own turn
must also
keep thinking, no matter how falteringly, as long as we do continue to
persevere...
And, with gratitude to Graham Greene,
author and novelist, for his candid, and to lesser scribbling or
tapping mortals, most reassuring statement, that
500 words was a good day!
Also, after re-reading Silent Spring,
with great respect to Rachel Carson, for power and flow of writing on
subjects that are never universally popular, but always needed
confronting, both then, and even more so now...
Plus,
to Louis Pasteur, Wine Scientist, who most wisely stated that fortune
favours the prepared mind, which means that we must be prepared to
learn from our errors, not just rationalize them, also inferring that
learning, if properly applied, will soon build on itself...
Finally,
with great respect to Charles Darwin, that terrestrial and
intellectual adventurer extraordinaire, and true exemplar of patience
and persistence, especially in relation to the Cirrapaedia, as well as
Natural Selection and other similar matters...
Thanks

other facilities, and also for those special bookshop opportunities to
