Another one of those
sequence of NY times readings with other random stuff:
This article about the surprisingly high(I won't use "statistically significat" :D) occurrence of dyslexia among entrepreneurs.
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/06/busin
If you have ever noticed stuff like dyslexia increasing with age or "leaders" who are all "big picture" guys you can concoct some interesting pet theories here(with a does of Shamanism of course :D)
The previous article needs to be compared with this piece which appeared a couple of days back:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/04/healt
Perfectionism: Good or Evil??
And this one about "Pushing yourself":
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/06/healt
And this one, demonstrating why I read this section of NY times. Not because the writing is good or that the analysis is insightful. It is the scientific observation of completely mundane stuff that makes me read it.
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/04/healt
and then again by scientific, I don't mean correct/unbiased/neutral. At the very least, an attempt to statistify things are done (much like politics, as some one reading this critically would notice :D)
A play about Darwin(contains spoilers). Not too interesting, unless you see the play.

If you got this far, you are lucky to witness me lauding a Tamil movie :D (How about Cauvery, as a hint, for those who don't know why I normally wouldn't do this in public). I saw "Evano Orvan" and liked it. No fluff in the movie, crisp, grim and some good subtle stuff to watch out for.
Finally I saw a post that surprised me. So I have a more general (abstract and nerdy too) question would be "How would you like your life to be: 'An Operating System' (A bunch of trap handlers :D) or an 'automaton'?"
Think about it.
