I never quoted it until today, not on purpose, I don&#8217;t know why I didn&#8217;t. Today, at the beginning of the Chinese Year of the Ox or cow respectively, when I started googling, I had to realize that I couldn&#8217;t absorbe this culture so very different to ours in such a short period of time. I returned back to our culture and I ended up at a book review published by The New Yorker about the invention of the air.<br \/> I think it fits the day. Air, we take it for granted, we don&#8217;t think about it any more, it became a fact. But there was this guy called Joseph Priestley in the 18th century who actually discovered oxygen. <a title=\"Steven Johnson\" href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/arts\/reviews\/brieflynoted\/2009\/02\/02\/090202crbn_brieflynoted3\">Steven Johnson<\/a> wrote a book on this guy who was thinking out of the box and gave us the air. Johnson offers a clear-sighted and intelligent exploration of the conditions that are propitious to scientific innovation, such as the availability of coffee and the unfettered circulation of information through social networks.<\/p>\n<p>Okay then, anyhow, we welcome the Chinese year of the cow\/ox, because the cow is so essential to our business, to our wonderful biestmilch.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1351\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1351\" style=\"width: 287px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1351\" title=\"chinese-year-of-cow1\" alt=\"The brown cow\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biestmilch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/chinese-year-of-cow1-287x300.jpg\" width=\"287\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biestmilch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/chinese-year-of-cow1-287x300.jpg 287w, https:\/\/www.biestmilch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/chinese-year-of-cow1.jpg 414w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 287px) 100vw, 287px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1351\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The brown cow<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><!--more-->Year of Ox (Cow)<br \/> The animal sign Cow in Chinese Horoscope is a female. We prefer to say 2009 is a Brown Cow Year than Brown Ox or Buffalo Year. Brown is equivalent to Earth in Chinese Astrology Five Element theory. The major element in Cow is Earth. It&#8217;s very clear that Earth comes very strong in 2009.<br \/> Earth is the ground under our feet. The ground is very steady.
