Reports came in of elephants in Tsavo community land with one antagonistic bull. Five elephants near the gate just needed encouragement to cross into protected land. Two bulls remained deeper - our pilot guided them until they both dashed to safety.

I used to read for pleasure *constantly*. But then I became a scientist, and have to do so much reading for work (it never stops!), than whenever I read for pleasure now I can't enjoy it b/c I really should be keeping up with the literature instead. It sucks. I miss my books.

Yeah. I've often wondered how many brilliant minds have lived and died hidden away in fields, alleys, and sweatshops. Most of them probably didn't even realize that they were gifted, having had no opportunity to demonstrate it to even themselves. What a loss to the world.
