SCIENCE AND SEX (December 30, 2008)
I dreamt that the understanding of the global economy grows with sexual interaction between academic communities from different countries that are concerned with economic activity in all its guises. Members of these communities meet at ever-larger conferences across the globe, the number of which is also growing over the years. As the number of international organizations concerned with different aspects of economic activity grows, so does the international sexual interaction that leads to ever-greater understanding of the global economy. The relationship between science and sex struck me as a major discovery in my dream, and I tried to commit it to memory, but the puzzling intricacies of that relationship vanished by the time I woke up. No matter how much I racked my brain since I got up this morning, all that I could retrieve is pretty trite, as witnessed by the above. God only knows whether my dream was more intricate, either.
