Serendipity. How trained minds recognize that something is different and, in so doing, solve a problem. Yes, I know that is not the definition you will find in a dictionary, which claims it means: the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way.

We interrupt this message…
I was listening to NPR today. (OK, I listen to NPR every day, but that’s not what this is about.) The panelists were discussing that, other than typos, there are few factual errors in the newspapers. This is because news reporters are very diligent, trying to analyze what is really happening and reporting those findings to us. And, it’s hard to keep that focus, with all the noise that’s out there. With folks wanting to know why this or that is not reported. That’s because so many bogus outlets exist out there, giving wrong information all the time.
