Making Tornadoes
Aug. 11th, 2004 11:58 pmToday, at work, I made a tornado. No metaphors involved, a real twisty misty swirl.
(Tornado-creating was just one of the exhibits at the Intech Centre in Winchester, a hands-on science type centre for children. My company held a departmental meeting there today, and the babble about green buttons and technical luvvies was soon forgotten when we got to try out the educational exhibits. "The hand is the cutting edge of the mind," it said outside the centre, quoting Jacob Bronowski.)
