So so much has passed since my last entry-

but I don't need to catalogue that- I'll just talk about the present moment.

My brother John is downstairs, on the computer- in a dark room, staring up at the bright screen. I come up behind him and ask him what he's doing- he tells me, "I'm loading iron ore into a furnace to make iron bars".

Among the many functions of a computer in absorbing the technical tasks of production, i never guessed that this stage of production would be one of them. (Though my bro is only in year 6 at school)
