Davis Goss’ Mind Boggling Blog

Whenever I turn on the television to catch up on the news, I am reminded of what a lousy place the world is to live in. Given a choice, who in their right mind would choose to live in world comprised of violence, chaos, confusion, corruption and blatant ignorance??
Wolfgang von Goethe was right when [...]

In a recent blog, “Lessons from Spilled Oil,” I made the point that while there is a place for technology and engineering expertise, too often one can get so cluttered up with their limiting parameters that simple solutions are overlooked. There are times when a non-technical good idea is more productive than engineering overkill.
After [...]

FREEDOM is knowing how to solve problems.  To experience true freedom is to also experience  peaceful, harmonious life experiences.
Lots of people go through circumstances where they have temporarily “solved” a problem but are no better off in the long run.  This is because their problem solving method was predicated on academic [...]

I was asked recently to write some articles that focused on specific problem areas people might be suffering from and explain how my unique scientific approach to their resolution might be productively applied.

I’m sure it’s a terrific program that will [...]

My favorite time of year! I can’t think of any TV programming I look forward to more than the Olympics… winter or summer. It’s not so much any particular sport as my admiration for the athletes who have committed so much just to be there.

Whether you’re a football fan or not, the “impossible” really happened! The New Orleans Saints won the Super Bowl!

I lived in New Orleans and shared its ups and downs for fifteen years. One of the significant “downs” was to watch the Saints football team lose week after week. During my tenure, the [...]

I just heard the “news.” I was presented with an endless barrage of old and new things to be concerned about, broken only about a lot of dribble that nobody should care about.
