Currently Reading: The Body in Pain: The Making and Unmaking of the World by Elaine Scarry. Somewhat in hiatus, fascinating, but quite a challenging read on both technical and emotional levels.

Up Next: All those school books I bought.

Topics I'd like to write on:

The broad misconception that a story is simply a series of events.
The self-esteem problem - criticism of a person's work is not criticism of the person.
The perception of life force and the association cortex.
The failure to instill empiricism in our schools. Reasons (other than religion) that the scientific method makes people uncomfortable.
What is Chaos? : A Five Part Online course for Everyone
The Official Noam Chomsky Website
The Chomsky Archive
Online Etymology Dictionary
Oxford English Dictionary Online
Found an interesting article on Asperger's
Thinking as a Hobby by William Golding: Pure Amazingness - please go read it, now.
