I started this Gemlog out of a wish to seek (and contribute to) online authenticity and community. 
My hope is to share some brief thoughts (100 words) on a number of topics that are of interest to me. Think of them as conversation starters. If you wish to reply, email me @sdf.org, prepended by my username (see URL). Please stick to text only (no attachments). 


> Find more pleasure in intelligent dissent than in passive agreement, for, if you value intelligence as you should, the former implies a deeper agreement than the latter. - Bertrand Russell, Liberal Decalogue #8
