"It has been said that man is a rational animal. All my life I have been searching for evidence which could support this."
--Bertrand Russell
"The enemies of freedom have always charged its defenders with subversion. And
nearly always they have succeeded in persuading the guileless and well-meaning."
--Karl Popper

A blog should...

A blog should be a resource.

Pulling the best ideas--from the web... or just your head--and posting them in a way that helps bring more information and meaning to a wider audience. This should be the goal.

Blogs live and die... you transition through them as you change and grow... this is the third conception of Jim. The current token is "under the name of reason."
