Ten years older and no wiser

Abstract

In a moment of madness, I wrote a summary of my life for the volume of Molecular Physics that noted my sixtieth anniversary. Evidently, I must have caused the editors of this issue some problems because in revenge they have requested that I write something summarizing the last decade. Obviously, I cannot write such an adventurous account as I did for Molecular Physics. Men in their sixties do not go to sea or go into a mine, unless, of course, this has been their career.
