Contents
Reasons to consider setting ourselves on fire
Some important clarifications
Apologia pro vita sua
What breaks first
The effects of earth's magnetic poles on free-space particle flux
Repurcussions of the current import/export ratio
Resistance movements throughout history
The river whose source lies beyond this map
Noise puts pressure on the brain
Lonely we were though never left alone
In which our heroine is coaxed out of her shell
In which a kindly docent guides me through this world
The first of three attempts to understand our neighbors
Case in point : bologna
And persons and its habits and its past
Preventive measures will prevent costly disasters
Resolutions
Case in point : cats
In which our heroine considers her alternatives
Autopsies were made with the following results
Our heroine is stalked by a white arctic fox
A spell for going safely forth by day
The fads and fashions of our life and times
Case in point : protozoa
Pop quiz on all you've learned so far
How long is the coast of Britain?
When I think of what the future must bring
Out of whose womb came the ice?
We can eat only marshmallows and still survive
A crane hangs like an icicle
On a bus from mall to mall on very heavy rain
It was hushed up for reasons we cannot explain
Am going south, Amundsen
Revelations
Case in point : crows
Life may have begun more than once
Always throw the first fish back
Dropped thngs are bound to sink
Luminescence
What endures and what does not?
Everything we can see in the universe glows
