$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / Many mental processes admit of being \ | roughly measured. For instance, the | | degree to which people are bored, by | | counting the number of their fidgets. I | | not infrequently tried this method at | | the meetings of the Royal Geographical | | Society, for even there dull memoirs | | are occasionally read. [...] The use of | | a watch attracts attention, so I reckon | | time by the number of my breathings, of | | which there are 15 in a minute. They | | are not counted mentally, but are | | punctuated by pressing with 15 fingers | | successively. The counting is reserved | | for the fidgets. These observations | | should be confined to persons of middle | | age. Children are rarely still, while | | elderly philosophers will sometimes | | remain rigid for minutes altogether. | | | \ -- Francis Galton, 1909 / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
