Einstein’s imagination vs (General) Knowledge

If there’s one quote from Einstein that folk love approvingly to quote it’s the one that goes: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” When of course ‘they’ really have no idea what it really means, but somehow (like giving to charity) it makes them feel good & smart to endorse it. But to be blunt about it would you stake your life on imagination (or intutition) vs knowledge? When do you know your so-called gut instinct is right? How long before you really agree with ‘the old man’ that: The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.


PSP as an aid to preventing childhood tinnitus?

Does using a PlayStation Portable to help prevent tinnitus in your child sound stupid? Well, having background calming natural sounds at night time can help, silence is not good for  tinnitus for sure. And you can set the music track function in the PSP to play one track continuously, with the power from the mains (even take the battery out). Also good for children who suffer from nightmares, apparently especially the case with young boys so my tinnitus consultant told me recently. And the PSP gives off a little light too, so there’s your night light. And with a device your child is already relaxed with – hello! Anyone listening (sic)?
