3rd Conversation and Vocabulary Journal

This Sunday I did not go to the church, located in 8th Av W. It was so delicious morning, raining, cold and I fell asleep too late. So, I said to myself: not today.

After the breakfast, I decide to walk around my neighborhood and I found a church. Something like Unitarian Church. I did not know what kind of it was, but I decided to get in. The speech was very instructive.

At the end of the meeting, coffee and tea were expecting the people and, of course, I took a cup of tea and some cookies.  I met a writer and a computer engineer. It was interesting what they told me. The woman writer told me that much kind of believers go to that church: Jews, Muslims, Catholics, Christians, atheist as her, etc. By the way, now, agnostics like me. That was very interesting because in my country I do not know a place where are joined a variety of churches.

The second person that I met told me he works in an enterprise that manufacture hard disks. The amazing thing is the amount of data that can be saved. They work in the Cloud and can build a cluster with 144 nodes, with 64 hard disks each, with five terabytes each hard disk. Come on! That makes 46080 terabytes or 46 petabytesJust a little bit of bits.

  1. Hey Carlos, hi!,

    Good to read you decided to oversleep and not to go to church. The way you describe your morning make me fancy it! But I would like to ask you about what you gathered in your talk with those guys who told you about the ones who attended the church you refer.

    It sounds really interesting, because of he asssortment of believers who join, to hear about agnostics, that it well supported, I would die to listen to their points of view.

    And even when I have a lack of knowledge in computers and that topic, what you say sounds really amazing! They must be quite astonishing people, right??
