Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada
1:13pm. Searching the web for university outing clubs to host my show, I came across the inspiring story of John Ledyard, "Dartmouth college's first truly legendary figure of the 18th century."
I also found a few thought provoking quotes on usewisdom.com

The right way to do things is not to try to persuade people you're right but to challenge them to think it through for themselves. -- Noam Chomsky
Paralysis through analysis.
To stay young requires unceasing cultivation of the ability to unlearn old falsehoods. -- Robert A. Heinlein, Notebooks of Lazarus
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. -- Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727)
The farther you go, the less you know. -- Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching (?)
