First Post

This is my initial post of my new blog 'Surfeit'. According to dictionary.com a surfeit is :

1. 1. Overindulgence in food or drink.
   2. The result of such overindulgence; satiety or disgust.
2. An excessive amount.

and this blog is a the result of my compulsive reading in a multitude of topics with a focus on history, science and technology. Reading is one of the few things that I enjoy. My head is full of facts and opinions of others and I have reached the point of overindulgence like someone at a Roman feast. That excess has to go somewhere, and you are looking at it. The result may not come up to the standards of the inputs but the output at such a feast rarely looks as appetizing as the inputs.
