The COVID-Restaurant Paradox

 The restaurant paradox on COVID.  You are quarantined or sequestered. Restaurants are closed. You crave social contact from the outside or with friends. You invite people to your home. No masks, close contact, loud voices, belching and sputtering all night - like for three-four hours.  COVID is in the air. Elsewhere else you go to a restaurant. Masks are worn to the table and from. You are separated from other guests. The conversation is subdued. In one-two hours, your social need is satisfied. You go home mostly safe, happy. ----------------------------------------------- On knowledge .  An investment in knowledge sits idly by until just that moment it's needed. Then, big interest is paid – sometimes in money and satisfaction but better in tickets to ride. If your plan is to learn it when you need it, you’re running late. For one thing, if you don’t know it, you will not know you need to know it.
