Couple of updates

Read 'The old man and the sea'. A touching little story. Written as a single section so a little hard to read. Plus some of the fishing/sailing references were hard to figure out. By the way this is the book that won Hemingway (the author) the Nobel.

Watched first episode of 'Sherlock' the TV series. Loved this modern interpretation. Wondered if the precision logic that Holmes employed was somehow an overgrowth of certitude of Victorian science in general. If so, one cannot write a Holmes today.
