Week - 10

E-prime - only when you pay attention to how much ...or little in most cases...."e-prime" is used does it stand out just how much language has changed just in the last twenty years or so. I think the amount of time kids....and some adults....spend texting or emailing each other and lose the ability....or never learn..... to have a face to face conversation. I ride the Bart 45min each way and have been through days of riding without hearing a conversation between people - everyone has their headphone in their ears - how do start a conversation without "disturbing" someone while they are in "their own little world"

synthesize East and West - by the first couple of lines in the article - the east and west are already "synthesized" - in the fact that the data in TCM is compiled...but nobody can understand it or talk about it in a "western science" sense
