Random thoughts...

But what about areas traditionally assigned to ethics, and other
topics not, or not yet, in the domain of what science studies? How do
other ways of knowing relate to the way of science? Specifically, how do
science and these other ways of knowing address questions of `what is' in
the most fundamental sense? How can we approach contemplative
traditions that in essence go beyond socio-cultural frameworks and beliefs
and also explicitly emphasize seeing, learning, and hence knowing (vs.
mere sensations or experience of one sort or another)?

I miss our local radio hosts:

http://www.wort-fm.org/lealarry.php

Especially Lea-- she was smarter and a lot more perceptive than me. When she was interviewing someone, I could just tell that they were thinking "What?! At her age she's supposed to be talking about her grandchildren, not asking me about the consequences of my actions on the poor!" "Uncle Larry" (as he went by) was only a small handful of year older than I. He was entertaining when I did listen to his late night show, although at that time of night I usually was more into silence than jazz.

Lea was/is one of my heroes. "Uncle Larry" was someone who I liked. I never actually met either of them, but I miss them.

Additionally, in the same time period, WORT lost another volunteer-- a young man who died from complications from his father's exposure to Agent Orange. Maddeningly, no money has been paid out to soldiers or their survivors who were exposed to Agent Orange.

Time moves on, leaving wreckage in its wake.

A special thank you to all of the local burners who helped make my birthday so much fun. Burners really are the best people in the world. Thanks to you all!

Still subscribing to a linear order of time and causality.

But willing to reconsider.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

The themes of death and madness which run through Crisis Core tend to react with me. Unfortunately, my reaction tends to be more like Cloud's and less like Zack's.
