To those who remember the old days (ten years ago), I say hello.
This site was huge for me. It was my first serious adventure in online conversation with anonymous strangers. Looking back on some of my posts, I was playing fast and loose indeed. If I was ever rude to you, you have my apology. The years have beat a little more sense into me, I hope.
I saw that I was asked after in a thread, that my absence had been noticed. That was nice. I hope that my sometimes silly and indulgent philosophy-poetry amused a few people. I probably should have listened more than I talked, but I was having so much fun.
I plan on checking in here soon and seeing if some of you are still posting.

Sat 4 Sep, 2010 05:01 am - And just look at the mighty structure of mathematics --which is presumably built on a blank and utterly simple unity, iterated and dyadically systematized. Plato's unwritten doctrine seems to... (view)
Sat 4 Sep, 2010 05:00 am - The unity I'm talking about is not a grand unity such as TOE or a mystical unity such as all-is-one but rather the unity that founds the possibility of arithmetic. I'm talking about... (view)
Sat 4 Sep, 2010 04:50 am - Are you talking about an infinite number of tangent lines?
The 1 and the 0. Isn't it strange that we have the straight-edge and the compass for our most important constants? The line and... (view)

Mon 5 Jul, 2010 03:32 am - Excellent reply, Pep. Choice is good. I'm thankful that all of these forums and sub-forums exist.
Even from those who didn't offer me new philosophical viewpoints I learned anyway from... (view)
