Although (this exception aside) I no longer regularly read or post at all here, I do return from time to time to check for news of recent CAS publications. I've been re-reading Shakespeare lately, so I thought that this time I'd leave the following for those who may be unaware of the source of the CAS maxim "Sweet are the uses of obscurity", so often mentioned here by my "dear friend":
"Sweet are the uses of adversity,
Which like the toad, ugly and venomous,
Wears yet a precious jewel in his head;
And this our life exempt from public haunt,
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in every thing.
I would not change it".
As You Like It, II, i, 14-20
