It needed going to university twice, because at first time doctor K. was busy and asked me to visit him some time later. And so I had to do. I was not really happy about it, as it’s quite chilly today (I’ve decided not to suffer too much and I got my gloves out of the closet). But in the end he found a spare moment. We sat and talked a bit about progress in my Thesis, I got some advice for further work and we shook our hands. A master’s student is treated much better. On way or another I have just a few small things left to do and I will be able to hand my credit book in the dean’s office. Well, no one actually cares about it, because people bring them sometimes in December, but I want to finish it. <br />-#-#-#- <br />One more thing about the chips. This is not my vision of ideal society, but a thing that starts showing up and we will have to learn to live with it. Everything has its advantages and disadvantages – a knife can be used both to kill someone and cut the tomato. I am afraid that my generation will have to learn to live with it. I am an optimist and I believe that only a small minority of mankind is mean, stupid and evil, and that is why I am more interested in advantages than looking at once everything bad. Rather reluctant towards these electronic things British, after the recent event… kidnapping and murdering the two girls, look at the electronic “leash” much differently. I don’t trust it too much, but some of it seems interesting. <br />-#-#-#- <br />Despite my whole faith in humankind I don’t think that we have deserved – as the whole – to be absolutely independent and free – among other things because, we are humankind and there are much imperfection in us. Unfortunately a perfect society cannot be created – democracy with human’s faults is just a poor substitute for it. Things like that could exist only in perfect dictatorship, where the dictator would be more God – knowing all and almighty – then a human. But this is just unrealistic vision, so we have to use what we can. God gave us free will… but has anyone heard about the parliament of angels? <br />Pawelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11252658503263556514noreply@blogger.com
