Thought for the Day

"An awareness of the intricate relationships between man and his environment is a major realm for scholarly investigation and informed concern on the part of all men who profess to be educated. 
A heightened understanding of such relationships can be gained only through a disciplined investigation of both sides of the fence, the natural envuronment physical and biotic; and the human or cultural one. As a discipline only geography endeavours to maintain this perpsective."
H. Aschmann (1962)
