In a contribution to the Qual-rs e-mail discussion list a couple of years ago, John Dickison wrote:
"I think it was Don D'Elio in
WHITE NOISE who wrote the passage of an foregone tradition: the scholarly walk.
Before the weapon of productivity was leveled at the temple of creativity, scholars
could take long walks around the campus, conferring, contemplating, hypothesizing.
Maybe you need to shut off the computer and stash the 3 X 5 cards and just sit and
think for a while. That should be, after all, the best tool in a scholar's kitbag."
