Some more amateur philosophy today – I was banging on about an experiment that we’d done in Physics that I was trying to write up.  It wasn’t really hard, says I, nor difficult to understand, and this is the killer, but it seems such a stupid experiment.  How could anyone find fault with such an erudite comment?  I completed my little piece by writing that less whinging and more work might just get 3 A Levels.  Oh, how prophetic!  (I was taking four).
