A good Friday

Although men are accused of not knowing their own weakness, yet perhaps few know their own strength. It is in men as in soils, where sometimes there is a vein of gold which the owner knows not of.

A trip to William

Written by: Giles   

I’ve left the Cavern for the time being. Will has requested my help with some experiment he wants to complete before he transitions to an explorer from a technology person. Or has he fondly likes to call himself “Grand High Tinkerer of Tiny Things”.

I sometimes can’t even begin to understand him, however I must admit here, if not to him, that I am looking forward to someone nearby while I work. I have been so isolated for the longest time, perhaps it will stir my creativity to have him there. Just so long as he lets me work, although I don’t see that as a problem. Once will starts playing with some device, he goes into the same zone that I apparently do while writing.

Hmm…it looks like he has a lot of electronic equipment he will need. This may pose a problem on the generators that are already strained… I may have to find alternate sources of electricity.  Perhaps I should let William figure out that problem. If there’s anyone who can pull electricity from the most unlikely places, it’s him. And Nikola Tesla.

“Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine.”
