A Goose’s Thought
Nikon D600, Nikkor AF50 1.8D
“If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.”
Maybe it’s not the goose’s thought but Bertrand Russell‘s, anyway it’s a good thought. 😉
Enjoy & take care,
Jannik

P.S. Adrian, I can’t reply to your comment, because of the two-replies constraint. I want to go to England anyway, I think next spring, so there should be a possibility to visit Bristol. I’m looking forward to it.

It is a good thought – and Russell was (and is!) so, so right; its only now that we are starting to recognise such truths. Are you studying philosophy, my friend? I like the picture. Adrian
