An update on my interest in Finger_Ring Draw
I've been spending some time the last couple of days researching those big rings in the desert over near Cooke's Spring north of Deming NM. I'm collecting my notes at What are those Circular Symbols drawn in the desert at Finger Ring Draw?. Can you spell heliograph?

From Knowledge to Wisdom
Wisdom is a product of a process. This process begins with information, proceeds through knowledge, and through what a less gifted poet, Edgar Guest, called "a heap of living," ends in wisdom.
... Wisdom, when it comes, usually arrives late in life. I've known some people who were wise in their early thirties and others who died old without a clue. Most philosophers were of the mind that a person should be at least forty years of age to have enough learning experiences. Now it seems that it is much too young. The step from knowledge to wisdom is the longest one in a person's life.
