Sometimes, it's not a good idea to wait. Windows of opportunity can be unexpectedly short, and if you feel that it's important to grab a chance while it's there, then perhaps you should! Something I could have done yesterday, I can no longer do today.

Yes, caution is sometimes advisable, and sometimes not. Oh well.
If you're talking to someone, and all you can see of their face is their eyes, is it harder to communicate with them? Yes, of course it is. I think it is important for this muslim lady, whoever she is, to not wear her veil when she is teaching. If she feels it's proper for her to wear it the rest of the time then fair enough, but I do have some sympathy with people, including Jack Straw, who say that this is a hinderance to communication. What amuses me though is that she didn't actually wear it for her job interview! And now she does want to wear it. Perplexing.
Today is quite a big day in the world of Blogging! The One Day In History campaign is encouraging people all over britain to blog, just for one day. It will become a mass-blog record of the 17th October 2006, and will be kept permenantly in the British Library for future generations to read. Sounds cool! I think I may just end up copying and pasting part of this, but I shall definitely be taking part.
