I had to look up quotidian, but got the benefit of learning paroxysms too :-) Really liked: "Does anyone really want to live in a world where all we talk about is work?" Couldn't agree more. I like LOTS of monkey business. Why do you think companies have pool, ping pong, etc.? We have it at Sun and it does stimulate in many ways, though I confess it has been a while since I took advantage. I'd go as far as to say ambient intimacy is a critical part of getting things done. Show me someone who has no ambient intimacy and I'll show you someone who only thinks they're getting things done or is getting things done, but it doesn't matter ;-) I love your stuff, man, but I especially like this.
