"“Why
not educate at least a tiny portion of the population to the beauty of
the machine — something in which all parts moved in just the right
relationship to produce the desired results?” he wrote in the 1968 in
Harpsichord magazine article.
If
people understood their machines, he said, — be they computers,
typewriters or harpsichords — “they would not stand in awe of them.”"

The Long Shadow of ‘Help Wanted — Female’
It has been 50 years since classified job ads went unisex. So where are all the female C. E. O.s?I agree that access to a pipeline that may not exist does not help much.
Schmoozing with the directors is the path to the CEO's office.
That society is almost exclusively male.

Falling Oil Prices May Make Trump Happy but They Pose Risks for U.S.
While falling prices help consumers, another big decline of the kind the president is seeking could hurt the economy in oil-producing states like Texas.Less oil extracted would be a good thing.
