What's in a name?

My need for definitions is less for absolute fastidiousness than it is for common usage. So I was delighted to discover a little trick in using Google. If you type in "define: " and then a word you're curious about, it comes up with a list of summary definitions and the links to their sources, in case you need or want to pursue them further.

If you want to give it a try, I might suggest the word "inference." (go to Google and type in define:inference) Don't be put off by the array of definitions. Some are quite droll. In this case, be sure to read the one from Cornell, which this afternoon is the sixth on the list.

A little surprise, though - the proper link to the Cornell Rice Genomics glossary has changed, which isn't that much of a surprise. But I was curious about whether there were other droll definitions offered there, so I tracked it down. It's properly linked above, and this one seems to be an anomaly on that score.

Oh, well ... have fun! (try Googling that definition - you just might discover the wonderful Keables Guide)

Two sun things

First, the sun doesn't care if you're sitting down relaxing, cool as can be on that speedy moped with the wind whipping in your ears. It's still going to burn your knees.

And second, the best way to enjoy a sunset is sitting by the water for an hour or more. God is good.
