Abstract
A chronological listing of ten scientific insights obtained by a theoretical biologist over half a century is presented. The circle spans many fields of science (engineering, chemistry, physics) exploring and exploding many accepted concepts. What is only touched upon is the assignment of the Now as the only place at which anything can be done and appreciated in our private qualia.
