Portland's High Tech Community And The Space To Think

from Silicon Valley Watcher - you shoudl read this article: Portland's High Tech Community And The Space To Think:

"My favorite quote comes from Linus Pauling, the US two-time Nobel prize winner, for Chemistry and Peace (he refused to work on the Manhattan Project unlike other self-proclaimed pacifists: Einstein, Fermi, and Oppenheimer.) He is considered one of the world's 20 top scientists with an incredible body of work produced during his 93 years.
How did he do it, how did he come up with so many great ideas? He said that the trick to having great ideas is to have lots of ideas.
It's true. A lot of the ideas that I write down, I throw away later, but there are enough left behind that make it through to the next stage. (But you have to write them down otherwise they disappear as quickly as the most vivid morning dream.)"

I have not seen this yet. However, as I write this I am putting it at the top of my que in Netflix. I love documentaries. I mean I really love them. I met Craig last week at the Web 2.0 conference and look forward to seeing this. When I say "met" I mean that I was one of 100 people in line that said hello, shook his hand and thanked him for his entertaining interview on the panel. So I don't know that "meet" is accurate. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it as much as I am sure I will: 24 hours on craigslist home
