A collection of stories, quotes and interesting tidbits, so settle back and enjoy some personal time. Spend it here in the Grove, you are amongst friends.

We highly recommend a nice cup of Irish tea, cream and sugar of course. Come and sit for a spell.

The scientist Steve Grand wrote the following:

Think of an experience from your childhood. Something you remember clearly, something you can see, feel, maybe even smell, as if you were really there. After all, you really were there at the time, weren't you? How else would you remember it?

But here is the bombshell: you weren't there. Not a single atom that is your body today was there when that event took place....Matter flows from place to place and momentarily comes together to be you. Whatever you are, therefore, you are not the stuff of which you are made. If that doesn't make the hair stand at the back of you neck, read it again until it does, because it is important.
