Uncommon Wisdom http://uncommonwisdom.posterous.com The World is full of possibility and chance, the road not taken, the branch that doesn't break. The great and small appear and disappear with unpredictable stories and unexpected consequences. We fill in the gaps that they leave behind with our imagination, and render the picture as whole as we can. But our imagination can go another step, and create possibility that would otherwise not exist. "Uncommon Wisdom" is a series of glimpses of the lives and thought of interesting and provocative figures previously overlooked merely because they did not exist.
