life on the wand

I've been neglectful in exercising lately: since my trip back to the US in December, to be a bit more precise. I don't really know why. While I was back in Grand Rapids earlier this month I heard on the news that the government has declared the food guide pyramid dead and will be publishing a replacement this spring. They indicated that the replacement would include a recommendation for a minimum of 30 minutes of moderate exercise each day. Strange that such a minor thing would be just the impetus to get me to start exercising again, but it worked. I have been jogging and riding my bicycle to work again several days each week. I like it because it gives me time to listen to audio books. I finished listening to Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time a couple of months ago. I didn't think I would keep downloading books, but I forgot to cancel my account (it was free for a month because of a purchase I made) so I have more books to listen to now. I have been listening to God's Equation by Amir D. Aczel. I am only to the fourth chapter, but it has been extremely well written and easy to understand for a "lay" scientist.
