Omniscopic: A rich worldview

om"-nee-scop'ic - 1. A broad perspective on the sweet details. 2. Seeing the magical in the mundane, the sublime in the subtle... OK, so I made that up. But here you'll find small bites of big ideas by a medium-sized mind - stories drawn from across space and time to reveal a fresh new view of science and the natural world. If an ENFP's musings on science and nature with a smathering of gushy ramblings is not your thing, feel free not to read on...
