一點尊重
23/3/2008 - 星期日 Sunday
寫《百年孤寂》和《愛在瘟疫蔓延時》那位作家叫加西亞．馬奎斯，García Márquez。加西亞和馬奎斯分別是父和母的姓氏。下注的格式為：
García Márquez, Gabriel (1967) One Hundred Years of Solitude
不少華文卻將此君稱為馬奎斯﹝例今日《明報》〈謝曉虹推介〉、博客來書籍館>百年孤寂、金石堂網路書店 - 百年孤寂等等﹞，那不啻將歐陽先生稱為歐先生。什麼叫尊重，懂不懂？
吸煙引致肺癌
21/3/2008 - 星期五 Friday
今時今日有丁點兒常識的都知道吸煙引致肺癌。提起「吸煙」想到「肺癌」，倘若在反智小農社會，當你喜歡的人跟你說「你係好男／女仔」，自然想到緊接的話是「不過我不可以跟你在一起」。
不過，原來當初 Don, R. and Hill, A.B. 在《英國醫學雜誌》發表他們的見解時﹝1950, Smoking and Carcinoma of the Lung, British Medical Journal, ii, 739-748﹞，還不時受到批評。批評聲中，更包括費雪爵士﹝R.A. Fisher，1890-1962，英國統計學家、演化生物學家和遺傳學家﹞。
數據顯示肺癌患者多曾吸煙。單看這項，能否帶出「吸煙致肺癌」的結論呢？不能。試想想為何。
公告 Notice
G'day mate,
I got my computer back from the repair centre today.
The problem: At first, it suddenly turned to a colour screen after I used it for a while. It happened a few times. Then, it got worse. It turned black right after I switched it on. Nothing had shown up on the screen, not even the BIOS. So basically I could do nothing at that moment but sending it to repair. Everything seems all right now, I'm back.
Happy birthday, mum!
cheers

公告 Notice
Hi there,
My computer (not the old one) is experiencing a weird problem.
Indeed I would like to take this as an excuse to stay away from the internet (partially) and concentrate on my study commencing next week.
I may disappear from some forums. Nonetheless, you can reach me by email. Be cool, I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
cheers

宇宙之終章？
6/3/2008 - 星期四 Thursday
最近一期《科學美國人》探討宇宙學之終結﹝The End of Cosmology?﹞，值得一讀。文章要點為，宇宙膨脹「加速」，引致資料流失，有礙人類觀察地球。「我們的經驗展示即使我們有數據，正確的宇宙模型並不明顯。」
