Your content is absolutely perfect for me right now. I love hearing people talk about philosophy, I want to start studying it formally and I feel like this bridges that gap nicely. This'll help ease me into actual classes, because this is different from hearing a wonderful thinker talk about life.

Thales learned the timing of the olive season and he would rent all of the olive presses in the region so that when farmers harvested their olives he was the only one who had the means to turn them into other goods like oils, which could be preserved. I believe his arche was essentially time, which is why he made his famous prediction and such. Fascinating man, and it really was all in the timing for him.

Yay, a Pre-Socratic. He believed everything came from water. Cool theory in its own right. Though it has its problems. Started this whole shindig we now take for granted, as u said. :)
