I have been feeling a little down ever since my foot injury. I think I know why. Once again I have come face to face with my own mortality. A chain of possible events might have followed the accident: infection, gangrene, amputation, and death. It is a blessing and a curse that nature has equipped us humans with foresight. The frontal lobe, where the awareness of future consequences occurs, is one of the most recent developments in our evolution. . . .
