Good science is boring, good politics is boring, good espionage is boring, good journalism is boring, good history is boring, good banking is boring, good business is boring. Entertainment serves us this pop view of the world...

"When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all."
This is so true. These systems that provide the foundation to our daily existence should be all boing, because they should be always working well and never surprise us.

I would love some of those less exciting times.
