Notes -
True story. At age 22 I lived in the Kgalagadi. As it happened, on the grounds of a junior secondary school with a science lab, to which I had the key. I spent a hell of a lot of time alone. I blame this solitude for what happened next.
I was curious if one could actually see human sperm using the microscopes there in the science lab, and one weekend when no one was around I managed (somehow) to acquire a sample of my own.
The answer is yes, the sperm are visible, if tiny. They also wriggle and move wildly, enough to have made me really realize the humbling wonder of conception and birth.
I am not making a suggestion, just relating a brief story. I've only ever told this to one other person, so let's keep this our little secret.
