Hau moris (I'm alive)

[tcpip]

Well, that dengue fever is really something special. Four and a half days of an absolutely thumping headache, the feeling that every bone in your body is being crushed and frozen along with sweat pouring off your body.

Thanks to everyone who wished me a speedy recovery. Much appreciated believe me.

In other news apparently the ICIAM paper was a success. A certain Professor Lyudmila Kuzmina from Kazan State University in Russia is interested in a follow-up publication, linking with the works of Ilya Prigogine. That should be quite a challenge (I mean, count the honorary doctorates the guy received, sheesh!).

Oh, and anti-independence militia apparently have been running around threatening people in Bobonaro district. Never a dull moment here.

I doubt you have ever experienced a dull moment anywhere LOL

Glad that you are better and that the ICIAM went well even without your presence :) Now you have even more things to work on.

Glad you're feeling better, I never got the chance to post a "Get well soon" comment, but I was thinking about you.

I'm intrigued by the Centre for Constructive Capitalism at the University of Austin, Texas. Seems to be an implication in the title of destructiveness in actually existing capitalism. Must look it up!

I'm glad you survived the fever, but I figure you'll be feeling pretty fatigued for quite a while. So take it easy if you can!

Good your back

Good to see you back on deck.

On the depressing front, the oil-resources make East Timor a high-risk for civil war. A famous study (no link, alas since I can't remember title or authors) found that developing countries with high income from fixed resources were wildly disproportionately likely to be the site of civil conflict. Creates spoils to be gained.
