RE: [microsound] ....the prepared mind?

[Sébastien Hayez <hayezsebastien@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Thomas,
That's just a way to say that "chance favours people who are prepared to 
"catch" chance.
He say spirit because of science but that's not in relation with religion, 
philosophy, etc.

Just an old way to say "scientist".
