...[T]hey came upon a plain... and settled there. And they said to one another... "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves; otherwise we shall be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." (Genesis 11:2-4)

elcome
to my GeoCities WEB site, which I started building 17 April 1997, now over a decade ago.
This site's main purpose was to be home to an experiment in on-line dialogical construction of a constitution for a humane community. This project was to be oriented to such sources as Jurgen Habermas's "discourse ethics".
The project did not "go anywhere", but I did write some thoughts, which you may wish to read and comment on.
Part of the
essence of dialog is to assert its contents as true, and part of
the process of truth-saying is to
open one's assertions to critical evaluation by all persons who come in peace. Enter
the conversation here.
oncerning
myself, personally, you can find out more about me
by visiting the WEB site I maintain on my ISP's server.
There you will find, among other things:
lease
go have a look at these things, and more, at my main website:

<![%THINK;[SGML]]> Also,
I have a couple pages introducing: "SGML" (Standard Generalized
Markup Language), which is the basis of both HTML (what you're looking
at here...) and XML (which is getting a lot of hype these days...). I strongly
believe that SGML is a "computer idea" really worth
learning about, not just for computer-type persons, but for every person
with an interest in communicating:
See an email to a scholarly
mailing list, for some thoughts about SGML's potential contribution to our culture;
See my Intro to SGML page,
for a very basic and, I hope,
friendly and intriguing, introduction (via exemplification...) to what SGML actually is.
(Also: Learn about
APL,
A humanistic and
imaginatively evocative computer
Programming Language!)
