oakfarm: The mysterious island, Jules Verne (Default)
[personal profile] oakfarm
I live 300 m from a lake in the forest. The lake that happens to be my childhood bathing and fishing lake. Yesterday I could sit by the lake, up here 64° N, and watch swans and also listen to something about Nietzsche on the phone, because that's what the algorithm recommended me to listen to. Ok I gave up on Nietzsche. But poetic words, forest lake, swans, 64° N. Then I went home and consumed digestive with 30% reduced sugar and lotus tea. Yes, oddly enough, I have lotus tea at home.

The day before yesterday I andRobert saw Oppenheimer. Words here I have from the book Einstein's monster by Martin Amis and from a swedish history book. Amis made a point of the the childish names: The gadget, the cradle, Little boy and later Nuclear football and why do I think the first H-bomb was named “My child”? Well, I can’t find that information online so I must remember wrong. The Swedish book had more about Heissenbergs and Niels Bohr’s meeting in Copenhagen, and Heissenbergs claim he had suggest physicists all over the world should lie to politicians and the military and say that an atomic bomb wouldn’t be practical to build. Only that Bohr didn’t remember it that way. That book might not have had the line: "I am become death ..." it did however had Niels Bohrs line "Is it big enought?".
