Why I write

Once upon a time, there was life on earth, and this event was followed, among other things, by the advent of the human species and its subsequent impact on the world.
I was recently born into the aforementioned species and blessed with the ability to think freely. Luckily enough, the external conditions of my life have always been favourable to free speech. With my love for learning and conversation, I have always derived the most satisfaction from intelligent thought and exchange of ideas. Sometimes these ideas are light hearted, at others they are more productive and stimulate further creativity, and at yet other times, they are absolutely radical and possibly frivolous in the face of established patterns.
With so much valuable energy being invested into this intangible enterprise of the mind, I believe I owe it to myself and humanity to record these ideas for posterity. While I’m not an expert on biological evolution, I do support intellectual evolution very strongly and do not want to be a weak link in this important chain. Hence, I write.
