Alas I am stuck at work all weekend! I will not be able to do anything constructive SL-wise until after Monday:/
On the other hand, I did buy two books in RL the other day. “The New Children and near Death Experiences” by PMH Atwater. Since I see quite a lot of death where I work and including children, I thought this might make for an interesting read. Much has been written and researched on adult near-death experiences, not so much on paediatric. This writer has been researching near death for over twenty five years now. So far from what I have read, it isn’t just a plethora of stories by children who have died and come back, it is much much more than that. It does look at things from an evolutionary point of view, it also relates what has happened to the brain and behaviour. It is managing to hold my interest. Hopefully I will manage to actually get it all finished between working RL and doing the SecondLife thang:)
I also bought a book called “Maya Cosmogenesis 2012“. by John Major Jenkins. Looks interesting and is concerned about the Mayan Calendar and the end of it which is obviously in 2012. Actually is more interesting to me because the end date is actually winter solstice of that year (21 December). The end of the world? I really do not think so, nor from what I have gathered BEFORE reading the book, it is more the end of the “fourth age” and the beginning of the “fifth age” of the world. Since it is only four years away, I am a little more than curious about it.
