It was a trip, to feel that energy of time - to experience the feeling of being at the leading edge, but that would one day be forgotten as the distant past, like all the distant pasts that the buildings of Oxford had witnessed.

And the brain slowed down. Not stimulated constantly by the Samsung Galaxy 3, which provides so many simultaneous data faucets, 24/7. Not to mention that the hyper data faucet, the Internet, also remained off for me in Oxford.
