October Meme, Days 21 and 22
The sun has just come out and I need to pop out to the shops, but before I go...
21. Ignoring all financial considerations, would you rather spend the next 5 years confined to an urban mecca (e.g. New York City, London, etc) or a beautiful, isolated coastal town somewhere?
That's an interesting one. Because I can see advantages in both. If I could chose the climate and the city or town...? And where in the city I lived...
I can see advantages to living in London - lots of interesting human events, galleries, museums, etc. And (since financial considerations have been put aside) there are some very nice places to live in London. I would choose to be central, near one of the big parks, surrounded by history.
But then... really..., if I could live in a town on a semitropical coastline... Oh, that would be very nice. I could have a garden and a small boat to go fishing.
22. How would you react if you learned that a sad and beautiful poem that touched you deeply had been written by a computer?
I would be amazed and I would think about an infinite number of electronic monkeys.
The rest of the month's questions can be found under the cut on day 1's post.
