What is the reason for the inexcusable abundance of nature? Take for example the number of seeds in a pod, and the number of pods on a red bud tree, or the number of keys from a maple tree, or seeds in a sunflower, or eggs thrown off by a frog in the water.  What is the reason that the countless brilliant thoughts and creative and wonderful ideas of humans are just lost to the “forever” star dust as each artist, craftsman, builder, and scientist and educator and poet dies.
