I haven't used a screensaver in a long time, but because of your
comment, I decided to try them.  Set them for short swap, 1 minute,
randomly. Maybe it was because of long absence, but I was impressed
with their intricacy and the programming that must go into them.  I
found some to be more pleasing than others, but they were all
mesmerizing.  Sort of like watching a fire, where the flickering
entrains the brain.  Watching them is a good way to take a break from
mentally spinning wheels, as they quiet the mind.  I spent a lot more
time watching them than I meant to, and I found myself getting flashes
of insight on random things in my life.  Heh.
