On the first day of heart evaluation school a little girl sat down next to Triportia and said, -why is your heart life set so low?- Triportia was only five years old, she didn't really understand that she was different, her happy heart was set at thirty-two, but the other little girl's heart was set for seventy-eight. Her teacher, Dryad Juglans pulled her aside after class and shared a bowl of walnuts with her that they shelled and ate together slowly. He helped her understand the cycle of life, just as the cycle of a walnut moves from fruit to sprout to tree. Not all walnuts become trees,...

Some years ago, while a Senior Lecturer-in-Law at BPP University, one of my Master of Laws' students asked if he could write a dissertation in Maritime Law. He wanted to do a survey of the rules of both Admiralty Law and the Law of the Sea. The department contained no specialist in either of these fields, and I taught neither. As he could not be dissuaded from this plan, I had to undertake a rapid, informal, self-directed learning programme in the subjects in order to gain sufficient professional skill to be able to supervise, and, later, assess the dissertation. His project was surprisingly...

In the late '90s I was working on a project developing large-scale enterprise learning mana- ment systems using early J2EE technologies such as EJB 1.0 and the Servlet framework. The Java hype machine was in full swing, and references to "EJB that, and Java this" were on the cover of every major IT publication. Even though what we were doing--and learning as we did it--felt so horribly wrong, the industry kept telling us we were doing the right thing. EJB was going to solve all our problems, and servlets (even without a view technology at the time) were the right thing to use. My, how times...
