Alle burde læse Radical Brewing af Randy Mosher, han er det ultimative
bevis
for at dogme og high tech begreberne er forældet. nu er man enten radikal
eller konservativ ;-) .Det er en bog der giver en lyst til at
experimentere
med andet end farvestof ;-)
Hmmm... konservativ betyder bevarende. Og slår man radikal op får man at
vide at det kommer af latin radicalis: at have rødder, radix: rod.
Dvs at man som radikal vil tilbage til rødderne, og som konservativ ikke
vil lave om på noget.
Vi får vist brug for nogle modernister. :)
