Directory Summary
In these
Frome pages, AskWhy! gives a few facts about the history and people of Frome and its Wessex environs. It is in the heart of the old Saxon kingdom of Wessex, and therefore at the center of a plethora of interesting historical houses and places. Frome is a long neglected town, but the neglect has preserved much of it, and it is slowly reviving as its more glamoorous neighbours get too expensive or overcrowded. It is not a tourist attraction itself but is just the place for a holiday center for seeing old England from Stonehenge to the Tank Museum, with a few tankards of cider thrown in of an evening! Cheers!
The Wisdom of Carl
People with temporal lobe epilepsy—involving a cascade of naturally generated electrical impulses in the part of the brain beneath the forehead—experience a range of hallucinations almost indistinguishable from reality, including the presence of one or more strange beings, anxiety, floating through the air, sexual experiences, and a sense of missing time. There is also what feels like profound insight into the deepest questions and a need to spread the word. A continuum of spontaneous temporal lobe stimulation seems to stretch from people with serious epilepsy to the most average among us.
Carl Sagan, The Demon Haunted World (1996)
