Internet censorship is alive and well in Vietnam. So here are a few belated pics from last week's Saigon sojourn. Caught up with my son on his big SE Asia OE. Staying at the Continental Hotel was a bucket list thing from way back btw.
Awesome story. Proof that no matter how difficult your background, you can find a way to succeed in life. rnz.co.nz/life/people/th…

When this administration was elected I predicted that it was only a matter of time before civil unrest broke out in the streets. I get that the previous govt overlooked a lot of serious problems for too long, but state sanctioned violence is never the solution.

This is where they make and store the good stuff while it ages. Reims, Champagne, France. It's chilly down in those caves but the end result is encroyable!
We need to be talking a lot more about using decentralised innovation models to solve global problems with science.

Distributed forms of innovation are powerful. Leonardo da Vinci saw the value, but our politicians don't seem to understand it at all. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
There are some gaudy looking buildings here in Barcelona. 😄
Quite an impressive Roman amphitheatre still remains standing in Arles, Provence, a strategic location on the Rhone river. Sadly, much of the old town was lost to WW II bombing raids inflicted by both sides.
