Thought of the day: TM Hashida
It’s our great surprise and pleasure that four Japanese scientists, one of whom lives in Tsukuba City, got the Novel Prizes. The winner of Novel Prize of Chemistry, Dr. Shimomura, a researcher of jellyfish, said that he do not like young people who say, “I can not do it”. I notice it is just the same feeling of TMing. All members of TM club do not say, “I can not do it.” Let’s say, “I will do it or I can do it.” voluntarily whenever we are assigned any role of our club.
