Power from Trees

Currently a team of MIT researchers are using platinum electrodes and ficus plants to discover the truth of feeble electric currents from trees. They have come up with an answer. They state that the PH difference from between soil and the living tree is the cause of creating electric currents. Now scientists are debating over how to use this power for human benefits.

New Post on 1984

Winston is very paranoid, he is afraid that the government is gonna arrest him. He says that the government is watching him all the time. The government own everything. Winston said "Nothing is yours except for the few cubic meters in your skull." The government controls everything, if you do something that they do not like they will kill you. Winston is afraid because he was writing bad things about the government in his diary. So Winston is hoping the government does not kill him.

1984

This part was weird. I did not really understand the two minutes of hate. Winston explained it like it was terrible, everybody was screaming, and just doing crazy things of hate. If it is really bad why do they have it on a scheduled date? That is weird.

That is all that really struck me while I was reading this part of the book, so that is the end of my post.
