The crazy world

I lost my blog. I forgot the password, I even forgot its name. And then, somehow I found it again, quite by magic. And here we are in the midst of an earthshaking presidential election in the USA.


I have written hundreds of comments in fora. But here are some of the main themes, I believe.


First and foremost, the details are far too complex, and anyway, by the time any candidate reaches the Big Office, things will have changed. It makes no sense to discuss the trees, the forest and its quality suffice at the beginning. And in broad strokes, Obama is miles ahead of McCain.


Experience is also, in part, irrelevant. Judgment is not.
