Recall the Monty Python line “A minute passed quickly past”? ‘Tis how the year 2017 feels to us. The geometrically-increasing pace of unrelated, and moreover, unimportant items beset upon us on a daily basis is blurring the very passage of time itself. Indeed, 99% of what now passes for “news” doesn’t affect us a wit, nor […]
